It's really a silly thing to complain about, but I'll mention it for completeness sake.

When I'm in the process of migrating over, the Linode Status box thingie lists me as being "Brand New". The other boot button works, but it was a tad disconcerting (was worried that I deleted my disk image or something by accident. :/ )

you have a brand new linode on the box but if you click images and it is there then it is there
