Everything is so slow and I can't find a RC 8.04 Ubuntu or KDE4 Kubuntu torrent. I only find betas and want the real release. Is there any other way of getting this? It will take about 6 hours or a day through update manager in ubuntu?

If you're upgrading, I suggest getting the DVD torrent. That way, less stuff will have to be downloaded directly from Canonical servers (or mirrors).

I used torrents and the upgrade was very quick. I have listed the steps I followed here (http://ptcbus.blogspot.com/2008/04/upgrading-from-ubuntu-710-gutsy-gibbon.html).
