A bit nicer, seems a bit faster, distro file almost 30 meg larger :),
changed some of the logo graphics, seems to have noticeably improved
MSOffice file importation. At least some of the MS-Word files I tried
with it that didn't work properly under SO5.1 seemed to work quite
well with this version.

Don't know about the rest of it, have only spent a very short amount
of time playing with it - I don't need to use office suites very much.

Certainly worth upgrading if you don't need to worry about downloading
over modem. :)
