You probably do to an extent, but I would expect that even among Linux users
- who are clearly much more willing to change than the average computer
user (not to mention stronger, smarter and better looking :-) ) - 90% of us
use the desktop we started with.  By the time most users might start
looking for a change, I'd expect them to have figured out the similarity
between Ubuntu and Kubuntu.  It certainly doesn't hurt to stress that the
*ubuntu products are variations on a theme, but I think that is done well
with the current naming scheme.
