use recent profile names

  '''Diskless Workstation'''<<BR>>
  It is a solution between a thin client and a workstation. It boots from the network, mounts its root file system from its next-server, and runs all applications on the local hardware. You can think about it like a regular workstation with a very long hard drive cable.
  
- '''Roaming Laptop'''<<BR>>
+ '''Roaming Workstation'''<<BR>>
  They are like workstations but capable of authentication using cached credentials, meaning it can be used outside the school network. The users' files and profiles are stored on the local disk.
  
  '''Printer'''<<BR>>

  The default selection of profiles includes main-server, workstation and thin-client server. That means, the computer is able to work as a main server (mandatory) and as a workstation at the same time, but if you don't plan to use it as a workstation you could just remove that profile. This adds flexibility and ease of use to the process, so you can perform complex configurations by just selecting appropriate profiles.<<BR>>
  The available profiles are:
  
- '''Main-Server (tjener)'''<<BR>>
+ '''Main Server'''<<BR>>
  Configures the main server that provides all services pre-configured to work out of the box for your network. It doesn't include user interface, so if you want one, then select Workstation or Thin-Client-Server in addition to this one. There must only exist one main server per network!
  
- '''LTSP-Server'''<<BR>>
+ '''LTSP Server'''<<BR>>
  Configures a thin client (and diskless workstation) server from which thin clients boot, run their processes and store their files. This computer needs two network cards, a lot of memory, and ideally more than one processor or core. See the chapter about networked clients for more information on this subject. Choosing this profile also enables the workstation profile (even if it is not selected) - an LTSP server can always be used as a workstation, too.
  
  '''Workstation'''<<BR>>
  Provides a computer that boots from its local hard drive, runs all software and devices locally but, performs authenticated user logins by the main server, where the users' files and desktop profile are stored.
  
- '''Roaming workstation'''<<BR>>
+ '''Roaming Workstation'''<<BR>>
  Same as workstation but capable of authentication using cached credentials, meaning it can be used outside the school network. The users' files and profiles are stored on the local disk. Notebooks and laptops should select this profile and not 'Workstation' or 'Standalone'.
  
  '''Standalone'''<<BR>>
