Guadalinex 8 is an Ubuntu-based, easy-to-use, desktop Linux distribution developed to facilitate the access to information technology for all citizens. With a 40% improvement in boot speed and a complete redesign of the default desktop, the distribution incorporates the latest free software technologies, such as GNOME Shell, which provides for a more productive working environment while allowing high levels of customisation thanks to a multitude of extensions downloadable from the Internet. Most applications included in the default install have been upgraded to newer versions; this includes LibreOffice 3.5.0, Firefox 10, GNOME 3.2 and Linux kernel 3.0. Hardware device drivers have also been updated, while a brand-new "centro de software de Guadalinex" provides an easy way to install extra applications from the Internet.
