14.04 is almost a year old?
- rootbear 12y agoIt is the most recent Long Term Support release and will be supported into 2019. I expect that is why they are shipping that version.
- alexmunroe 12y ago14.04 is the LTS release, most corporate environments using Ubuntu that I've encountered jump between the LTS releases due to the five year support cycle. Being that a fairly large portion of the Dell's customer base it does make sense.
- 72deluxe 12y agoThe LTS one is the one to install if you want a system to use and do stuff with for an extended period of time. I don't miss the days of reinstalling the bleeding edge version of Fedora every so many months, only to find that they'd changed things and that the GNOME preferences in $HOME no longer worked or meant anything etc. How do others cope with the incessant wheels or progress/reinvention?
