Yeah, I downloaded the UNR*, and am going to try it tomorrow.  

I have only installed on these things via usb stick.  Never tried external 
dvd.

*Is anyone using Paetec and noticing speeds from Canonical servers are very 
slow?  Starts out fast and slows to a crawl.  killing aptitude (or pausing 
DownThemAll in this instance) speeds them up for a short after restart, and 
then thet slow down again.

Paetec again?  Just quit my address with netaxs.  Amusingly, their
email system dumped my inbox the same way it had when I got angry and
canceled. 
The machine is not a server but it is a Dell Ubantu desktop which I guess
means Canonical.
