Sabayon 3.5 released


I'm so glad because sabayon 3.5 has been released, i was waiting for downloading it and now we finally can. I like the new colors of the presentation, they changed the dark red of the 3.4 version for a blue with white letters.
They released two versions, server and desktop for architectures X86 of 32 and 64 bits.
