Good start there. Thanks for taking the leadership.

1. Ubuntu doesn't have w32codecs. Better to explain what they are and the risks
2. Please use synaptic for the telling people how to install
3. More clarity on which version for which processor
4. Ubuntu uses esd by default. People trying to mess with it are in
for bad news, so don't mention them.

Otherwise, again, great start.
