Duplicate info in the download pages for 14.04.1 Lubuntu and Ubuntu Gnome?

[chris hermansen]

Hi Phill,

Thanks for the reply.  I guess I can see all of that below in the actual
links to the iso's, etc  and that makes sense now that you have explained
it.

What still seems weird to me is what I've copied below.  I can't see any
difference between the first "Desktop image..." and the second "Desktop
image..." unless I hover over the links.  Then I see that the first
grouping is 14.04.1 and the second is 14.04

Would it not make more sense to put something like "Desktop image
(14.04.1)" in the first group and "Desktop image (14.04)" in the second?

Lubuntu is similar as far as I can see except it includes the Desktop
images and the Alternate install images (ie two sets of both, only
distinguishable by hovering over the links).

Desktop image

The desktop image allows you to try Ubuntu-GNOME without changing your
computer at all, and at your option to install it permanently later. This
type of image is what most people will want to use. You will need at least
384MiB of RAM to install from this image.

There are two images available, each for a different type of computer:
PC (Intel x86) desktop image
<http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-gnome/releases/14.04.1/release/ubuntu-gnome-14.04.1-desktop-i386.iso>
For
almost all PCs. This includes most machines with Intel/AMD/etc type
processors and almost all computers that run Microsoft Windows, as well as
newer Apple Macintosh systems based on Intel processors. Choose this if you
are at all unsure.64-bit PC (AMD64) desktop image
<http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-gnome/releases/14.04.1/release/ubuntu-gnome-14.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso>
Choose
this to take full advantage of computers based on the AMD64 or EM64T
architecture (e.g., Athlon64, Opteron, EM64T Xeon, Core 2). If you have a
non-64-bit processor made by AMD, or if you need full support for 32-bit
code, use the Intel x86 images instead. Desktop image
