Sorry disappoint you, but, frankly, "So download" <insert product here> "and start enjoying it" is exactly the kind of text I _never_ want to read in anything supposed to provide information.

In fact, way more often than not, that kind of phrase, in my experience, indicates an inferior product and make me not want to buy or even try some product (be it software or a vacuum cleaner).

Bragging about the number of happy customers has a similar effect.

I've always felt that a "Who is using our project" list actually means "We aren't a complete failure! Really!". :-)
