Ubuntu Documentation - Getting Started

[Tom Davies]

Hi :)  

I think it does look just about right after all doesn't it?  I think the original document was good and Doug did some good editing of the contents.  So i think i did pick up on the right formatting.  I really wasn't too sure at the time but i think it does look good now doesn't it?
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/phillw/temp_Manual

Regards from 
Tom :)

The ToC seemed to have some wrap (or lack of float) problem with the first coding bracket so i set the ToC to be a lot wider than it should be in order to push the text down.  So, it looks a bit strange.  Also some of the headings seemed to be a bit long and might be better shorter.
