Kubuntu 8.04 stepped over the barriers of gutsiness and took on a whole new
feat by providing this latest release with double vision. Improved desktops,
updated applications, increased usability features, and a new future are
just a few of the surprises with this latest release. Improved desktops?
Double vision? Yes! Kubuntu 8.04 now provides you the ability to use either
one of two desktop environments, or both if you shall choose. If stability
is the feather in the cap you are looking for, then look no further than
Kubuntu 8.04 featuring the KDE 3 desktop environment. If you are looking for
a bit of an edge, Kubuntu has you covered with the new Kubuntu 8.04 KDE 4
Remix. This time around the development team jumped over hurdles, bent
backwards, and did all kinds of flips for a non-Olympic event in order to
bring you this latest release. So it is with our pleasure that we introduce
you to the new Kubuntu 8.04 and we hope you enjoy your ride aboard the Hardy
Heron.
