Ahh thats good.  When I saw it I thought... hmmm, that looks like Telly 
Tubby land on XP.  I'm sure lots of people will see that and think 
Windows XP.  In fact I tested it on my other half.  I asked her what 
computer related thing she thinks of when she sees it and she said 
'Windows'.

That has to be a good way of drawing people into read it as they might 
think it's something related to Windows.

Just got a couple of comments...

"Ubuntu is compatible with Windows
computers and programs."

Hmm, I'd be a bit concerned about Joe Bloggs trying to use any and every 
Windows app with Wine.  I must admit most things I throw at Wine work 
but there are also a few other apps that don't.

Also, since Ubuntu, Windows and Vista are trademarked, shouldn't there 
be something on there to say about the trademark holders (like very 
small print or something?)

Looking good anyway.

Just wondering too, are there any guides on the Ubuntu Wiki to help 
Windows users move over to Linux, for instance finding alternatives to 
all their favourite applications?

Ta,

Rob
