Good point; that's fair.  On the other hand, I think that another
barrier to entry is the amount of specialization and/or text required
to get people to the right download and to guide the installation.  We
can certainly have separate pages for various distros and OSes as
necessary, but it would be ideal to have a 3 step process that worked
for everyone, eg.

1) Download the SoaS file for [windows] [linux] or [mac]
2) Plug in a USB drive that's 1GB or larger
3) Click the thing that's named/looks-like 'X' to make your Sugarstick
4) You're done!
