If I'm correct in assuming that the UK chapter has some spare cash at the moment then making AWB and other proven, popular, useful but single OS tools available on more operating systems would be a very useful investment. Community development, quality improvement and uncontentious.

Acer makes a decent product at around £300 as I recall which of course

Windows 7 works fine and people are familiar with it. As Harry says,
"We should focus on getting something that WORKS". It doesn't need
expert administration to avoid becoming a toxic waste dump I've got
enough friends and family using it who are no where near experts to
know that. There's very good and free security software available. So
go for dual boot to satisfy those who dislike WIndows or any software
needs. And I'd hide IE. But please let users have the option of a
familiar interface.
