Ubuntu 8.04. Il futuro e' oggi.

Novita'

Un Desktop ancora piu' bello (Beautiful New Desktop)

Switching between apps shows a full preview of each window, windows flow smoothly across the desktop when dragged, and you can slide between different desktops.

Semplicemente Sicuro -.-' (Security Made Simple)

Tired of having to remember multiple passwords? Ubuntu 7.10 now unlocks access to all your saved website passwords, wireless network keys, and file shares after logging in. You can now keep important files private by simply right clicking them to encrypt.

Ricerca istantanea (Find Anything Fast)

Find the documents, photos, music, videos, and chat logs you want instantly with a single click. Tracker searches inside files content, and can be used from inside applications to select files.

Simpler screen, printer, and wireless set up

Monitors and projects can now be automatically detected. Printers are now automatically configured by merely plugging them in and turning them on. Wireless cards and modems can now be easily set up.

Open, edit and save files on your Windows drive

Users dual-booting with Windows can now open, edit and save files on their Windows disks out of the box.

Save your battery, the environment, and your lap

Ubuntu now allows the processor to use less power and produce less heat. For laptops this means more battery life and burn-free laps and for desktops and media center PCs, a quieter, cooler environment.

If your laptop’s stolen, your data isn’t

You can now encrypt your hard disk. If your laptops or mobile devices is lost or stolen, your files won’t be read without your password.

Run Windows apps inside Ubuntu

VirtualBox allows users to even run Windows right inside Ubuntu.
