* In the "preconf" doc -> Create and configure -> step 10, I changed "When you attach the pre-configured |CL| VMware image, VMWare removes the default virtual disk making this setting irrelevant" to "The disk settings do not matter at this stage because you will remove the default virtual disk and attach a pre-configured Clear Linux VMware image at a later step" because the former implies that VMware will do it automatically, but in fact, the user will manually remove the default virtual disk.

Drastically simplified the language used and fixed grammar, spelling,
and style issues.
Fixed the content flow. Particularly how the screenshots are handled.
By fixing how the screens were introduced, the steps could be simplified to
a single level. This change provides a much better experience for readers.

4) Added file type info for .vmx file in Windows.
5) Added blurb on how to verify checksum for Windows.
