Finally downloaded the 4.8 ISO today,
so far really like what I see..
will wait for the final before installling though.
Thanks for all the work you guys do.
 :)

Do you feel it is more demanding on the system or it's just as fast and light?

Seemed as responsive as any other Distro running on this machine from a live CD That's about all I can say for the moment.

Oh, if there could be an ISO with XFCE 4.8 stable before I bring that "new old" box to my parents where internet is sooooo slow  ;) ;) ;)

Will it be possible to update or will a new install be mandatory to obtain XFCE 4.8?

Looking at the change log on their home page I have decided to completely re-install, even if they say you can just upgrade.
Too many changes.
