This post will begin the series on the newest release of Ubuntu. For more information on Ubuntu Hardy Heron, read my post from last Friday, “Ubuntu Hardy Heron 8.04 LTS Released” or go to the Ubuntu website.
Since I already discussed the new features in the new version of Ubuntu, I figured the next logical thing would be to show how to install Ubuntu Hardy Heron. Don’t worry, it isn’t nearly as hard as you might think. In fact its probably easier to install Ubuntu than Windows (usually faster too
).

To begin you should download Ubuntu from the download page (click here). Choose ‘Desktop Edition’ and ‘Standard personal computer’ unless you plan to install the server edition or the 64bit edition…
According to Microsoft, Service Pack 3 (SP3) will the be last service pack for Windows XP. This is part of the transition to Vista. In fact, a few of the new features in SP3 are also in Vista. While I hate to see the slow progression from XP to Vista, it is about time MS released another SP. It has been about 3 years since SP2 was released.
