   Yes, after you have installed Ubuntu 7.04 HERD (test) 4, just update    
   your system frequently by using the update-manager (applet) or run,   
      
   $ sudo apt-get update   
   $ sudo apt-get upgrade   
   $ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade   
      
   And you will always have the latest version of the product, also when it    
   hits the final version.   
   --------------   
      
   If you want to upgrade from Ubuntu X to Ubuntu X+1, run:   
   $ gksu "update-manager -d"
