Just to clarify.  What you are saying is that folks will install a
bare-minimum ubuntu server install (from an ISO if required) and then you
do an apt-get install some-mythbuntu-package to install all of the
dependencies including the window manage etc, etc.

So, not as easy as a ISO but still pretty easy.  And you still get a fairly
bare (unbloated) ubuntu install.  And you aren't actually going anywhere!

Right?
