The Ubuntu developers are moving very quickly to bring you the absolute latest and greatest software the Open Source Community has to offer. The Intrepid Ibex Alpha 1 is the first alpha release of Ubuntu 8.10, and with this new alpha release comes a whole host of excellent
new features. The feature list for 8.10 has been slowly taking shape since Intrepid opened early last month. While much is yet to be decided for 8.10, here are some of the new things that have already arrived, as well as a good look at the approved specifications for Intrepid Ibex.

I'll have to check it out. I'm looking for an OS for an older PC to give to my Mother that wont be too hard to figure out. She has never owned a PC.
