The office computer will remain LTS versions, as it has since Dapper. I'll burn a disk, and see how my laptop (T43) likes the new Xubuntu release. If it does, I'll probably keep it, if not, I'll reinstall 12.04, and leave well enough alone.

Re: Upgrade to 12.10 or stick to the stable 12.04 LTS?
I'll check the initial reviews. If any speed improvements, I hit the button immediately. I'm OCD about speed. And battery life.
But I do love my good 'ol stable LTS.

By the way, what does LTS stand for?

LTS is also supposedly more stable

if you really cared about stability there are more stable distros but honestly most distros are plenty stable right now. i say go for the upgrade because you will always wonder what it's like until you eventually do. or at least that's how i used to be.

LTS support is for 5 years. (Starting with 12.04. Before that it was 5 years for the server and 3 years for the desktop.)
