On a general note, while I appreciate the overall effort, just
mentioning FPC3.0 and Lazarus 1.4, which both do not exist (just yet)
might rather backfire and give it a kind of "vaporware" look...
Also, you might reconsider to immediately trigger the download of a
random image in .exe format when switching to the "Get Lazarus" page,
that doesn't look good either, considering that this is a way how not so
nice fellows are trying to spread malware...
Just my quick 2c,
Ralf
