So the runlevel 3 on his Atom machine means he has tested networking but not X11, while runlevel 5 on the Macbook means he can run X11.

I boot to runlevel 2 always, because higher numbers are ostentatious.

Yeah it's kinda stupid that in Ubuntu, which uses the "rl 2" semantics, you can't deactivate network by changing to another rl.

The average user can figure out how to change runlevels. The average user is going to stumble attempting to configure a custom runlevel.

The average user will either unplug the ethernet cable, or click on the NetworkManager applet, instead of mucking with their runlevels at all.

The average user in my household has never heard of "runlevels"
