UBuntu 8.04 'hardy heron' is here atlast!
Download Page
Review of beta

A feature I am really looking forward to is 'wubi' - Install linux without touching the partition table (or atleast the MBR). You will need to grab the wubi.exe from the downlaod page

^Why is there nothing on ubuntu.com?

 

[blueshift]

ya...it still shows 8.04 coming soon...

Anyways I have preordered the CD.

Thank you very much, downloading i386

Thank you for the info, downloading now ...

Guys. Please stop ordering CDs from Ubuntu.com. Not unless you have no download source. I have found lots of people ordering ubuntu CDs just cause they are free and come in a nice packaging. All this stuff is simply adding to the toll on our environment. So if you can download it, do that.

Just my 2 cents.

And yay! for hardy!

A long wait is over at last. Thanks for the news.

Totally agree with goobimama

I used to order before and Prakash helped me a lot too.

After getting broadband, I download CDs, never tried the free option after that.

Well, at 5pm IST, it's quite easy to make sense that it's only 7:30am in New York and 1:30pm in London. Noo one launches things as the first thing they jump out of bed to do.

I was expecting they'd follow UTC or the South African time zone (UTC+2).
