I've been using it for a while, and have a bit of feedback...
o if the window gets covered up, clicking on its button on the
taskbar doesn't bring it back to the top like it does with other
apps
o it seems to crash on certain mirrors - the ones I've had crash
are
ftp://planetmirror.com
http://planetmirror.com
ftp://ftp.sunsite.utk.edu
<etc.>
setup.ini partially downloads, then kaboom - actually, it appears
that the only one that works reliably for me is ftp://mirrors.rcn.net
note that the old setup.exe (2.125.2.10) works fine on the others
o maybe I'm misunderstanding, but when I get to the "Select packages
to install" window, if I click "View" until I get "Full", then
select "Exp", most packages show up as "Uninstall", with a few showing
versions newer than what I have
shouldn't all those other pkgs be "Keep" rather than "Uninstall"?
