It seems the website is in transition. While still coming soon on the homepage, the download page now lists 9.10 as newest version. http://twitpic.com/ndx0v
Front page is updated now as well.. My download via torrent is cruising right along..
substitute whatever particular image you need, it's all named accordingly.

Yeah, but it's coming out today, and it's going to get like a gazillion upvotes... so somebody wanted to earn the points by being the first to post. I've been using the beta for a while now, it is B.E.A.U.T.I.F.U.L. It's competing with OSX now (having surpassed Windows long long ago)
Actually, with Windows 7 and Snow Leopard out Ubuntu feels even further away from becoming mainstream. I want to like Linux on the desktop but looking at it objectively Win 7 and Snow Leopard are better.
In the last version, they broke my Intel graphics driver, rendering my machine almost unusable except for the console. I spent many hours trying to fix it, and ended up switching to Arch out of frustration. I don't think I'm going back, but does anyone know if they've fixed it?

is it really a big jump from 9.04? the last few releases havent changed a whole lot in terms of ui polish, which I always thought was really nice until I used osx. and to be fair to the original poster, the link is available now, the site was in the middle of updating

To me Linux is a lot closer now than it was in the past because you can pop a Ubuntu CD into a computer and 9 times out of time it you have a working computer with sound and everything half an hour later. 7 years ago, when I first installed linux, that would have been more like 1 time out of 10.
