Draft

Roar into the future with Leonidas. The king of operating systems has arrived, and it is ready to defend it's turf from any challengers.

No more hunting through the brush to figure out which of dozens of controls manages the volume for this application, a new Volume Control makes it simple.

Pretenders to the king's throne now need to get past the new Fingerprint reader support to even challenge the king.

And the king can now expand his pride over a much greater territory with the new default filesystem.

The cubs can now be bigger, brighter, and more secure with enhancements to the virtual machine library, including a new improved console, better SELinux integration, and improved authentication.

And feeding the cubs is made easier with the expanded automatic font and MIME installer.

The king can now go hunting outside his territory, too, with the new Windows cross compiler.
