A few days ago, Canonical released a new version of their leading Linux products: 8.04. Ubuntu 8.04 LTS (Long Term Service) has been released, improving the desktop experience and targeting Mac and Windows users by adding enhanced multimedia solutions for pictures, music, videos, and more.

You can find out more about Ubuntu 8.04 from their official page.

I do want to point out a related project, called Kubuntu (essentially Ubuntu but with a KDE desktop). Kubuntu 8.04 was also released recently with updated components, such as KDE 4 with support for 3D effects, new simplified codec installation for Kaffeine, and Read/Write support for NTFS!

Personally, though, my preferred Linux distribution is still OpenSuSE. Maybe that will change, but likely not if I can get KDE4 on SuSE.
