Status in Ubuntu Manual: Fix Released

Bug description:
Version: 788
Chapter and page number: Prologue, p. 9 (p. 11 of the PDF)
Type: grammar/sentence structure/style

The second sentence of the second bullet point under 'Is Ubuntu right for you?' reads "For the vast majority of tasks that people use their computers for every day [...]", which sounds rather awkward. An alternative is "For the vast majority of everyday tasks that computer use facilitates [...]".
