Nicely put ! I hope many more people in the fora want to see
OpenSolaris based desktops at homes than just servers, and that
Indiana can help in that direction.
(I myself am indifferent to GUI based OS installers, but I do expect
them to be user friendly - assume sane defaults, recognize all
partitions & filesystems properly, require less resource than the OS
itself, etc).
