Hardy is here
I earlier made a post (gutsy is here) in the same forum worthy of the prestigious 'noob of the year award' 
Lamest thing I have done on my PC 
neways..
Ontopic:
UBuntu 8.04 'hardy heron' is here atlast! 
Download Page
Review of beta
A feature I am really looking forward to is 'wubi' - Install linux without touching the partition table (or atleast the MBR). You will need to grab the wubi.exe from the downlaod page

Re: Hardy is here
Guys. Please stop ordering CDs from Ubuntu.com. Not unless you have no download source. I have found lots of people ordering ubuntu CDs just cause they are free and come in a nice packaging. All this stuff is simply adding to the toll on our environment. So if you can download it, do that.
Just my 2 cents.
And yay! for hardy!

Re: Hardy is here
Totally agree with goobimama
I used to order before and Prakash helped me a lot too.
After getting broadband, I download CDs, never tried the free option after that.

Well, at 5pm IST, it's quite easy to make sense that it's only 7:30am in New York and 1:30pm in London. Noo one launches things as the first thing they jump out of bed to do.

Ya you got it.
BTW after downloading for the first time from Taiwanese server, my download was corrupted. I did a MD5 hash checking before burning and was confirmed that it was indeed corrupted. Downloaded second time and it is all fine now.

Re: Hardy is here
I am posting from the live cd 32bit and so far, I must say Hardy is a charm. It is so fast and adept, partly because of Gnome 2.22.2 I guess. It is a breeze when compared to previous live editions of Ubuntu and every piece of my hardware works without any hiccups. Yes people, this is the best Ubuntu you can get.
Edit: If you had any problems with RC edition like me, forget all that, those were just wet dreams.

Re: Hardy is here
Got the cd iso in less than 15 mins 
First Impression: Nothing has changed from the previous release!
But honestly I have just burnt the iso, ran the live system and used it for 10 mins or so! Will give it some more time over the weekend
