Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Desktop Edition Released
Integrates the Latest Stable Applications with Long Term Support

LONDON, April 21, 2008 – Canonical Ltd. announced the upcoming availability
of Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Desktop Edition for free download on Thursday 24 April. In
related news, Canonical also announced the simultaneous release of Ubuntu
8.04 LTS Server Edition.

Ubuntu 8.04 Long Term Support (LTS) provides a stable platform for software
and hardware vendors, developers and users. With three years of support and
maintenance on the desktop, 8.04 LTS is a great choice for large-scale
deployment. A substantial and growing ecosystem of free and commercial
software built for Ubuntu provides a rich set of choices for desktop users.
This is the eighth desktop release of Ubuntu. Ubuntu's track record in
delivering - on a precise schedule every six months - a commercial operating
system that is free, stable, secure and fully supported, remains unique.

“Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Desktop Edition is a very significant release as it will
take Ubuntu squarely into the business environment," said Jane Silber, COO of
Canonical Ltd. "Our business and home users have told us that they want a
longer support cycle to make Ubuntu a better deployment option. We have
responded to that and added a commitment to much broader software and
hardware support that we and our partners are excited to deliver. With
enhanced commercial support through Landscape, combined with our always
excellent community support, expect to see 8.04 LTS drive Ubuntu into new
arenas."

"Ubuntu's polished, user focused version of the Linux desktop has built
itself a wide enough following to compel significant ISV interest and support,
” said Stephen O'Grady, principal analyst at Redmonk. "By coupling a very
capable desktop offering with long term support options, Ubuntu is becoming
an increasingly viable option for enterprises as well as consumers."

"Lotus Notes and Lotus Domino bring highly scalable messaging and
industry-leading collaboration to the Ubuntu desktop,” said Kevin Cavanaugh,
vice president of IBM Lotus Software. "We believe the extended multi-year
support for Ubuntu 8.04 LTS makes it an excellent desktop solution for
corporate users who wish to deploy Lotus Notes on an open platform."
