   Ubuntu do an issue every six months.  The even year dot 04 (April)(e.g. 18.04)   
   is an LTS... Long Term Support version.  (I tend to leave a new April's   
   release to fester for a couple of months, till a point update, i.e. 18.04.2,   
   to catch any inclusive fixes.  It ain't important though.)  The dot 10s are   
   only good for six month's support.  The LTS versions are supported (for   
   security and fixpaks) for three years minimum; some are for five years.   
      
   VirtualBox 5 is on a leash, and due to be discarded.  It's best to get 6.xx   
   even if it insists on 64-bit-ness.   
      
   FYI.  I came across an old util for timEd.  Its FILE_ID.DIZ reads...
