Documentation

Docs I'm working on:

• MigratingFromWindows (needs work)

• SwitchingFromWindows (needs focus, cleaned up more now)

• GraphicsApplications (looking good, out of cleanup)

• ["WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper"] (needs testing, which I can't do. Needs another cleanup)

• ["Beagle"] (looking OK, some instructions need testing)

• ["Microsoft Office"] (Looking good, taken out of cleanup)

• ["Audacity"] Cleaned-up

• ["FreeFormats"] Stuck an intro bit to the front

• ["CDRipping"] Added explanatory bits

• SwitchingToUbuntuFromWindows Changed everything
