How about a "recommend download" link?
« on: September 14, 2010, 05:34:52 pm »
Most noobies are going to come to the pinguy main page, see four download links and be stopped dead in their tracks.

I think we should put a comment on there somewhere that says something like "if you don't know which of these you want, click on the 32bit direct download (and maybe an arrow pointing to it)"

What do you think?

At some point I am going to do a slight re-design of the site letting people know that the 32-bit will work on most systems and that 64-bit will only work on 64-bit systems, also that the torrents are the preferred method of downloading.

Just trying to think of ways to do this at the moment. Any ideas would be helpful.
