Jerry Bezencon has announced the release of Linux Lite 4.8, a new stable version of his beginner-friendly users distribution of the Lite project based on Ubuntu 18.04 and using the Xfce desktop:
“Linux Lite 4.8 final is available for download and installation. I take this opportunity to welcome all users of Windows 7 who have come here to find a simple, fast and free alternative to Windows 7, which has reached the end of its life and no longer provides updates security.
Linux Lite can make the transition to one operating system based on Linux easy, offering a complete office suite compatible with the Microsoft suite, and well known software such as Firefox, Chrome, Teamviewer, VLC as well as full system backup tools, but also a complete and easy to use help manual to guide you on your journey. It has Steam pre-installed so you can keep playing your Windows games.
Our desktop is designed just like in Windows with a Start menu on the left, while on the right you will find the volume options, network and calendar options, with familiar desktop icons that take you exactly where you want to go to your system. ”
