I agree "easy to use" and sample are not the same for everyone. That's

why, to my mind, a good installer should provide several methods to

install. 
If you like the current way it works, you should be able to continue

with this system. But what if my mum, who has low computer skill, would

like to install a free, functional and secure system? I think the

software should help her to make the most accurate choices. Because I

think my mum too deserves a reliable operating system. :P
Best regards.
