Yes I see. I think a general explanation of how software is installed is
important in switching because it is so different to Windows.

I also think an update to how Totem can update codecs is necessary being
as this is something Windows sort of does, but not very well.

I'm not sure how appropriate the current Applications in Ubuntu section
of switching is either - perhaps a quick synopsis of the installed
programs and then an expansion on those which are equivalents to popular
Windows programs?

Cheers
