Ubuntu 8.04 LTS (codenamed Hardy Heron) was released yesterday world wide. From the reviews online, it looks to be even better than its predecessors and has gone even further in making it easier for novice users (one can just install it like an application on MS Windows using wubi).

If you are in Kenya – get it from http://mirror.ac.ke/pub/linux/Ubuntu/hardy/ (hopefully should be available soon).

+ Easy to use, no viruses, and best of all, it is free.

For gamers, I came across this article.

Check out the article from the Wired Blog that takes an indepth look at it.
