The Zorin OS developers announced the release and general availability of Zorin OS 12.4, the fourth maintenance update to the latest Zorin OS 12 operating system series based on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus).

Shipping with the updated HWE (Hardware Enablement) stack from the recently announced Ubuntu 16.04.5 LTS point release, which is powered by the Linux 4.15 kernel from Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver), as well as an updated X graphics stack, Zorin OS 12.4 brings all the latest software and security updates from the Ubuntu repositories, along with performance enhancements and bug fixes.

Also, they teased us with the upcoming availability of a major Zorin OS release that will be based on the recently released Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS (Bionic Beaver) operating system. Of course, this means that Zorin OS 12.4 is the last in the series, so don't expect further point releases for Zorin OS 12 to be announced in the near future. The beta release of the next major Zorin OS release will be available shortly.
