    * Kernel 2.6.35.8 – *Much* improved mac80211 stack.
    * USB 3.0 support.
    * New wireless cards supported.
    * All wireless Injection patches applied, maximum support for wireless attacks.
    * Even *faster* desktop environment.
    * Revamped Fluxbox environment for the KDE challenged.
    * Metasploit rebuilt from scratch, MySQL db_drivers working out of the box.
    * Updated old packages, added new ones, and removed obsolete ones.
    * New BackTrack Wiki with better documentation and support.
    * Our most professional, tested and streamlined release ever.

    For those wanting to upgrade an older release of BT4, an apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade should do the job.

    Yeah I think BT5 is going to be awesome when its released next year. Can't wait, don't see the point in R2 though because according to their site they will be stopping support for 4 early next year when BT5 is released.

    I'm still using BT4 Final, got R1 but never used it. I have BT2 & BT3 somewhere, proper old school.
