Finally Kubuntu Gutsy Gibbon has been released and I got a CD from my friend.
Updated Kernel and KDE 3.5.8 make it look cool. Dolphin has replaced Konqueror but only as a File Manager, Konqueror is still the default Web Browser. As a File Manager Dolphin manage to get more score than Konqueror coz it has only basic File Management action so it loads faster than Konqueror. The split view of Dolphin make it easy to compare two folders or to quickly browse two locations. Open Office 2.3 adds little more stability and functionality.
Even on slower PCs Gutsy Gibbon loads faster than Feisty Fawn. Applications too loads faster than Feisty, no long time bumping icon and no long waiting for an item to load.
Adding restricted codecs to media players has been made more easy. Update took less time but as per new release servers are somewhat congested. Eye candy and Stability of KDE 3.5.8 is superb.
Gutsy make it more easy to migrate from Windows to Linux. Overall performance is superb and if you encounter any problem there is a vast community to help fix that.
