StartUbuntu is not a personal project that attacks Microsoft, that is
totally wrong. StartUbuntu is a huge community project that aims to offer
Linux as the best solution to Windows XP Users and also Windows 7 and 8. I
see no good reason to disagree with that :)

It is an indirect way to say that Ubuntu GNOME is the best option if you
have a machine that can handle it. And, it won't bite if we have more
slides. The installation process is going to take time and reading
interesting stuff won't harm ;)

I fail to understand why you did not like it?

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StartUbuntu/Activities

See the popularity that StartUbuntu is having and there are nearly 40
members who are so excited and guess what? I have asked Lubuntu guys to
include that slide as well :)

NO ONE is attacking Microsoft. You can do a re-wording if you think it is
too harsh but do not remove that, please!
