Lucid: Sounding Good

I'm sure that there will be the normal range of positive and negative reviews of Ubuntu's latest release, Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid Lynx). And, as always, I take any review with a grain of salt.

The Dedoimedo reviews are usually pretty good, though. Detailed, for sure. Also entertaining.

The concluding comments in the Dedoimedo review of Ubuntu Lucid were encouraging for LTS fans like me:

This is by far the best Ubuntu release since I started taking interest in the distribution, way back with Dapper in June 2006. While you do not get everything out of the box as some other distributions like Mint or PCLinuxOS offer, the overall quality and integration surpasses the slight inconvenience of the extra few minutes of downloads and configurations. And you still have a better, faster, more secure system than other market rivals, for absolute zero cost.

Looking forward to installing it here!
