Today I noticed that Adobe Acrobat Reader 9.1 was released. It turns out that it was released last Wednesday, but I didn't notice until today when Adobe put it in their RPM yum repository.
On Windows is common to have lots application specific background apps wasting memory checking to see if new versions have been released. The Linux software update model is definitely better in that regard (though it does have it's own issues such as having to wait until the next stable distribution release to cleanly get the next version of GNOME).
