There is no need for an "enterprise" version of Ubuntu. All those needs apply to the home user as well. CoreyBurger

I disagree. How many home users need domain authentication, logon scripts and remote GP profiles. I do not know one home user running a Windows domain! Those features are used exclusively in business... ChrisRowson
