12.04 (Precise) is LTS. I believe they’ll support through 2017. For an open source OS, that’s pretty amazing. I LOVE Ubuntu. Used to be a Fedora die hard, but I’ve since come around to Ubuntu. I was getting tired of the distro release schedule with Fedora.

OpenOS4 is okay, but I’ve read from some RHEL programmers that it’s a mess “under the hood.”

Yes, Ubuntu is pretty remarkable. And it has not kept them from working on different versions either.
