Proposed text to help choose which Ubuntu version to download (as per comment #111 in Bug 5894)

This would be used at:

• http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/

• http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download

Proposed text

• PC (Intel x86) desktop CD
  • For almost all PCs. This includes most machines with Intel/AMD/etc type processors and almost all computers that run Microsoft Windows, as well as newer Apple Macintosh systems based on Intel processors. Choose this if you are at all unsure.
• 64-bit PC (AMD64) desktop CD
  • Choose this to take full advantage of computers based on the AMD64 or EM64T architecture (e.g., Athlon64, Opteron, EM64T Xeon, Core 2). If you have a non-64-bit processor made by AMD, or if you need full support for 32-bit code, use the Intel x86 images instead.
