6.06 is probably being bundled because of its long term support :-)

Not just because they've been in stock, unsold for a long time?
At 139 squid for the 2,66 proc we should all buy one to encourage Tesco.

Nah, 6.06 is the Ubuntu with 5 year support so it actually makes sense
in that respect to bundle it over the later versions. I'd get one but
I have way too many PC's here as it is. Now if they had a decent
cheap laptop I'd snap that up.

Or you could buy from One-Stop Computers of London Road, Stoke. I've had one
of their Economy Machines for a year now, and it's okay. You can buy one
without any Operating System. Because of the SATA Hard Drive you may need to
experiment which OS can be installed, but Debian and FreeBSD work fine.
One-Stop are good for bare CD/DVD Drives, USB Pods, and suchlike too. They'll
even donate some little screws to install your Drive with (don't forget
those).

Most modern distros and kernels prefer sata drives. Sounds like a shop worth
poking.
