This particular design is getting more common around the web. Apple's iTune download page <http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/> have a big button that reads "Download Now," then at the bottom of the page they have two small links: 64-bit editions of Windows Vista or Windows 7 require the iTunes 64-bit installer and G3 Mac Users Google Chrome <http://www.google.com/chrome/> has a big button that read "Download Google Chrome", right below they have "It's free and installs in seconds For Windows XP, Vista, and 7," then at the bottom of the page, in small: Chrome for Mac or Linux · Chrome Beta Sourceforge <http://sourceforge.net/projects/inkscape/> have a big button "Download Inkscape-0.48.1…exe", and then below "Other Versions, Browse all files" etc.
