Web browser slide is incredibly mundane

Bug Description

browse.html in the Ubuntu slideshow has this content:

Browse the web
Ubuntu includes Mozilla Firefox for fast, safe web browsing. You can also choose alternative browsers from Ubuntu Software Center.

That is incredibly mundane and basically sounds like we aren't very happy to be shipping Firefox, which is certainly not true. (Firefox is awesome!)

So: we need a really nice, energising message here :)

This was "fixed" in revision 401, which landed in Precise Beta 1.

It could still use some more creativity, but it's better :)

I don't see how the new copy is addressing this issue. Isn't jus saying "It’s easy to use and it’s backed by a non-profit foundation that loves the web." more?

Personally I am not sure this makes it sound more awesome.

And I agree we can sound more excited about the products we ship :)
