Ubuntu  is a computer operating system based on the Debian GNU/Linux distribution and is distributed as free and open source software with additional proprietary software available.It is named after the Southern African ethical principle Ubuntu ("humanity towards others"). Ubuntu provides an up-to-date, stable operating system for the average user, with a strong focus on usability and ease of installation. Web statistics suggest that Ubuntu's share of Linux desktop usage is about 50%, and upward trending usage as a web server.



I like tell you some facts about the versions of Ubuntu.A new version will be released for every 6 months and they are released in 4th and 10th month of any year.So the version number comes by combining year.month .The new is released in April 29 2010 i.e in the 4th month and the year is 2010 ,so the version name comes as Ubuntu 10.04.Ok the version is fine and what about the LTS beside the version.LTS is the acronym of Long Term Service, these editions are released once for 2 years and are supported for three years on the desktop and five years for servers .

Since it is a Open Source you can download it for free from their website .There will also do a favor for us.If we face any bandwidth problems in downloading the Ubuntu OS which is around 700mb ,they will ship it to our location for free of cost.And this is now available for the new Version  10.04 LTS , i think now you can understand the version name clearly.

Here is the procedure to get one Ubuntu 10.04 LTS to your home.
