| Unfortunately, as I've said elsewhere, linux is not Windows and
| efforts to make it so are doomed to fail. Nobody gets to be a
| leader by following, and neither OpenOffice nor Linux are going
| to beat Microsoft at being Microsoft while following where
| Microsoft leads - just as Microsoft is never going to beat
| Apple on technology by copying its interface and gadgets.

| The aim of this installer is to provide an easier way for a Windows
| user to install Ubuntu without having to know how to burn a cd iso,
| set the bios to boot from cd, repartition the disks, set up a
| multiboot system, etc. It will not replace any of the current
| Ubuntu installation options, and will not require that windows is
| installed prior to the installation of Ubuntu.
