Mark Shuttleworth just announced a version of Ubuntu for the dual-boot called Unity and a range of Light versions of Ubuntu, both netbook and desktop, that are optimised for dual-boot scenarios. These «Light» Ubuntu versions are optimized for the web.
However, Ubuntu Light for the Desktop will only be available for OEM's, and you won't be able to download Ubuntu Light from ubuntu.com:Given the requirement to customise the Light versions for specific hardware, there won’t be a general-purpose downloadable image of Ubuntu Light on ubuntu.com.
