[brlug-general] Desktop Linux

[Andrew Baudouin]

I don't think Kubuntu is really considered as a separate distribution.  
Since the project's standardized on gnome they had to make things 
separate. They use the same repositories....

I like Ubuntu and have no problems recommending it, especially since 
they just released their new version, 6.06 LTS. Its my preferred desktop 
distro.
