Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubiquity

In ubiquity 2.5.11, run after booting from today's daily Natty Desktop i386 Install CD image, the "Preparing to Install Ubuntu" step says "For best results, please ensure:" and then lists three conditions pertaining to the user's computer ("has at least...", "is plugged in...", "is connected..."). This is grammatically incorrect and slightly confusing. Instead of saying "For best results, please ensure:", it should instead say, "For best results, please ensure your computer:" or something similar.

I don't know if it is already correct in all other languages, or if it also will require retranslation.
