From: Douglas Smith 

They've been really iffy with some of their patches lately.   Also, I
wish I had more choices during install.  WTF, in a corporate environment,
do I need MSN, MSN Gaming Zone, Messenger, Online Services, etc.  I have
done a couple of XP Pro installs from scratch in the last week and the
whole shebang is geared towards the home user -- not for a corporate
environment.
