LXLE Official Release Notes:

After 10 thousand downloads within a month for the beta of LXLE; many suggestions, tips and help came pouring in, it was simply amazing. After some investigating and clever work, its finally official. Did I miss anything? Probably. Is it flawless? Probably not. Is it a pretty damn nice full featured desktop OS that'll run good/great on any PC made in the past ten years? You bet, but hey, I'm biased. Needless to say without becoming too long winded, which I'm certainly known to do, lets get to it. LXLE purpose is to provide a complete, very fast, drop in replacement OS for your aging computer. Its built on an LTS release of Ubuntu, more specifically Lubuntu. Its pretty and ready to go out of the box. The first official version packs a punch. Most features and graphics from the beta remain intact. However there are significant changes that help complete the OS for an official release.
