    Just a little suggestion. Is it possible to offer "kernel binary
    upgrades" every other major release, for example, it shipped with
    2.4.2, hence, the next upgrade to be release, 2.4.4 then 2.4.6
    then 2.4.8. I can compile everthing however, I know a couple of
    people too scared to get down into the nitty gritty of Linux and
    compile their own kernel.

Umm.. most (if not all) vendors provide kernel binary upgrades.  If
these are not frequent enough for your needs, you need to complain to
them.
