the final version won't be out until next year i belive, but a pre-release
was available for awhile. it was taken off the main ftp site, but you can
still find it mirrored a few places. just do an ftpsearch for
'linuxgui8.tgz' (i think). the only problem is that it has a time
expiration limit to it (but this can be defeated by a crack that's
floating around).

the best thing might be to just wait until the final release comes out,
but i always hate waiting so....

btw, its about 38+ MB
