Torrent description

What is Lubuntu?
Lubuntu combines Ubuntu with the \"Lightweight X11 Desktop Environment\", more commonly known as LXDE, which provides a \"fast-performing and energy-saving\" working environment for users and it perfectly suited to low-power hardware.

Although you can already installed LXDE in Ubuntu, this \'spin\' cuts out the fat and uses it by default.

Why would i want to use LXDE/Lubuntu?
If you have a fairly old computer or low-powered device then using LXDE will allow you to get more out of your machine. It uses less RAM, less CPU and less hard-disk space than either GNOME, KDE or XFCE (Xubuntu) thus providing significant performance gains over them.

Xubuntu - the current \"lightweight\" choice - is not as slender a distribution as people tend to think. Recent benchmarks show it to be just as \"demanding\" as regular Ubuntu - sometimes even more so!

Lubuntu is -extremely- small, nimble and light but without sacrificing usability or features. Whilst Ubuntu uses just short of 200MB\'s on my computer, Lubuntu used just over 50mb. Yes - 50MB.

Download
You can download Alpha 1 of Lubuntu 10.04 @ http://people.ubuntu.com/~gilir/lubuntu-lucid-alpha1.iso

Please do note the word \'Alpha\' - this is not a stable release.
