Edited introductory paragraphs

Actions & justifications:

"New to Ubuntu?"
  Removed redundancy in "New to Ubuntu"?
    Appeared twice: once in header, then in first sentence
  Expanded the first sentance into listitems
    Attempted to use more of the page, so the contents didn't
    have such a visually dominating effect.

"Welcome to Ubuntu"
  Spread content out to two sentences
    There were two messages. One was about Ubuntu, the other
    was about getting new software. This commit provides a
    visual seperation, so that the messages are clearer.

Largely cosmetic changes

Added the occasional comma. Discarded semi-colons in favour of new
sentences. Attempted to shorten sentences where beneficial.

Non-trivial changes:
  location - action - justification
  l 78 - deleted some text - Sounded a little too much like an advert.
  l 79 - removed 'update' - Not accurate
  l 87 - content changes - Provided some more specifics, used 'non-free'
                           over 'proprietary' because it's more accurate
