 Hi all
 You may or may not have heard about the windows installer that is
available on the Ubuntu live CD. This installer allows you to install
Ubuntu onto a virtual disk, within your Windows installation, so you
don't have to worry about setting asside dedicated hard disk space to
install Ubuntu.

 As of now, the windows installer offers accessibility options to the
user. The accessibility options that are available are the same as
what is available from the live CD boot menu, which means you can set
up the windows installer, choosing the accessibility profile you want.
During the install, and on the final installed system, accessibility
will be enabled according to the settings of the accessibility profile
you have chosen.

 Please spread the word about this, as this is a great way to get new
users involved with trying out Ubuntu.

 Luke
