@Dominic, You can update your system normally as ubuntu still maintains nonpae kernel on their repo. They only stopped to generated a livecd with this kernel (the gap that my livecd fills). As 12.10 might not contain nonpae kernel, you might need to keep 12.04 forever but let's see the options when the final release happens.

@Jane, the xubuntu installation plus the apt-get install ubuntu-desktop would get very similar results. I just think that this is not an option for systems that have restrictions on storage space (as my eeepc with 4GB of SSD). For anyone with plenty of space and time/bandwidth to download ubuntu-desktop packages over the internet, the xubuntu step is good.
