“An updated version of Lubuntu was released last week,
along with Ubuntu, Kubuntu, and Xubuntu. This release brings
Lubuntu, along with the rest of the buntus, up to version 10.10.
Lubuntu is a distro designed to provide a lightweight alternative
to Ubuntu itself. Lubuntu uses the LXDE desktop environment.

“LXDE uses less CPU and less RAM than other environments.”
