** Using Kevin's steps I proceeded as follows **

1: NOTICED INCORRECT LINK
I realized that the posted link was incorrect:
> deb http://software.thikgos.com/ gadgets main
There needed to be an "n" in "thinkgos.com"

2: ENTER THINKGOS.COM SOURCE REPOSITORY
I went to Synaptic Package Manager, then to Settings>Repositories,
chose the "Third-Party Software" tab, clicked on "Add..." and entered
the following line into the space provided and clicked "Add Source":

deb http://software.thinkgos.com/gadgets main

3: PERFORM UPDATE
I closed Synaptic Package Manager then used a terminal window for the
following two commands (the second one may line-wrap on this forum):
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install gmenu gos-gdm-theme gos-wallpapers gos-icon-theme
gos-usplash-theme wbarconf gos-skel-gadgets

4: REBOOT & VERIFYING INSTALLED VERSION
4.1: Using a terminal window I entered the command "uname -a" which
returned:
Linux myusername 2.6.24-21-generic #1 SMP Mon Aug 25 17:32:09 UTC 2008
i686 GNU/Linux

4.2: Using a terminal window I entered the command "cat /proc/version"
which returned:
Linux version 2.6.24-21-generic ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version 4.2.3
(Ubuntu 4.2.3-2ubuntu7)) #1 SMP Mon Aug 25 17:32:09 UTC 2008

END

So far everything seems to work fine, but the question is:
Did my system upgrade from the Beta version to the Final Released
version? Is there some place that I can look on my system that will
specifically state that I am indeed using the released version and not
the beta? I am not certain by looking at the numbers in step 4 if I am
now using the final vs. the beta version.
