Thats great. Thanks :)

I'll have a couple flavors with me as well, though they will be home- 
burnt.

And yeah, they're naming system is horrible. there's no way it will  
be taken seriously in a buisness environment with those names.  I try  
to just refer to it as "Ubuntu's Linux Distribution" and not by  
release name.
