[Bitcoin-development] new bitcoin.org clients page

I'm not sure what "designed for occasional use" means.   Many users of
other clients use them exclusively without touching other clients.  Armory
is designed to be your only wallet (if bitcoind[d/-qt] is running in bkgd).
 I'm sure the other clients are the same.

Instead, I think that line would be replaced by a blurb about the target
audience.  "Designed for Advanced Users".  "Designed for Quick Setup and
Instant usability".

Btw, Armory now has full installers for both Windows and Linux
(Ubuntu/Debian), with uninstallers and automatic URI registration
