Comment 413 for bug 1

- Whenever you are asked by a friend, an Uncle, your mother, whoever, ... to
help them with their computer, install Ubuntu - no discussion. The only
files on their windows system are probably just some .doc, .xls, .ppt,
.jpg-pictures from holidays and some mp3's -- all easilly usable on Ubuntu.

- Whenever someone is talking about poblems with their computer (error
messages on screen most likely to be '...Your Windows installation is not
proven to be genuine...' or something), tell them you can help them by
re-installing their computer and re-install it.
