Ubuntu 6.06 LTS 64-bit. It is beyond me why so many people use non-LTS release of Ubuntu on their production servers.

What does LTS have to do with production? Unless you plan to leave your servers still for 7 years I don't see why you can't use the latest and greatest. It isn't as if LTS if the only one that gets patched, it just gets patched for the longest.
