Oh sweet Ubuntu with your rapid development cycle and sexy logo, will you ever slow down? The third alpha release of Ubuntu 7.10 (due out for real in October) is ready and available for download.

The new version includes the super rap Compiz Fusion 3d desktop, which should make the Gutsy Gibbon rather attractive indeed. A whole slew of other improvements come along for the ride as well.

Be warned, it's alpha software. Still, it's some exciting news for the Ubuntu addicted.
