Hi Marie, There is no need to change your system, even to Xubuntu. If you already have Ubuntu installed on your computer, and things are running well, there is no need to install other versions due to worry about the continued existence of Ubuntu...it is being actively developed and is currently one of the most widely used distributions of linux. I think a lot of people get confused by the acronym "LTS", which instead of meaning "lite", means "long term support". Stay tuned, since upgrades for your newly installed ubuntu system will be made available approximately every 6 months! I hope this helps!
Yes, and if you're using 6.06 Lts you have 6.10 ready and waiting for you to upgrade to and 7.04 is coming in april. The lack of 'LTS' at the end doesn't mean as much to a home user as it does to a business, I wouldn't worry about whether it has it on or not to be honest. A Lts release is made every so often to allow businesses to deploy ubuntu and keep using the same version knowing it will be supported for X years rather than messing around with new versions. this doesnt matter as much to you as you're less likely to keep one version for a long time and pay for support. However if you do want to switch I would look at OpenSUSE or Fedora Core Nick McMahon
