Fair enough. It's a difficult balance between factually correct and
marketing.

I left it as viruses because I thought virii may be too confusing for
the uninitiated? I'm impressed by the leaflet by the way.

I heartily agree. When the competition has a poor product fro years,
but good marketing, it is certainly the time to use marketing
techniques. Surely that is what marketing actually *is*?

The Ubuntu Shipit pack says:
'......is easy to install, free of viruses, and perfect for laptops,
desktops and servers.'
Just 14 words. Impact. Clarity. Marketing.

Can we please get some push into UK marketing without hints of
reservation or apology?
