If I'm reading the numbers (binary data) on that page correctly, does it
suggest that
if current Kubuntu desktop CD/ISO is about ~700 mb then moving to lzma will
shrink
it down to ~600mb thus allowing for an *extra* ~100mb of compressed stuff?!

If approximately so, then it's what they call a "no brainer" I would think
:-)
