@Nick_Hall:  +1

I just downloaded a 12.04 LTS iso, downloaded Pendrivelinux's USB
creator, and tried to install it on my Dell Inspiron 8600, only to get:

"This kernel requires the following features not present on the CPU:
pae"

Arggh.

So a short side note on the Downloads page:

- [If possible to provide for most machines, something like:] Try this to see 
if you have 'pae' enabled on your processor:  1., 2., 3.
- [Then--or at least, if first '-' isn't possible:] If you don't have 'pae' on 
your processor, please choose this alternate 'non-pae' .iso image: <image link>

Would be nice.

My $0.02 worth.
