 James, there are a lot of clear advantages to using the Ubuntu
distro.  For starters its far more stable than Kubuntu.

  I used to be a Kubuntu guy, but I just gave into Ubuntu, its the
easiest way for me to run Linux, plus its an easy sell to a manager,
etc.  Even though we all value choice, sometimes you just gotta get
with the program.
