Hi Kamil,

Not really. They could have got their install medium from an event, a
conference, a friend or a colleague, university or college...  Maybe they
didn't even install the system themselves.  Often someone with some
knowledge of Linux install it in their
relatives/friends/partners/colleagues/classmates laptop or computer.  Also,
a person may want to try other systems or maybe they didn't know about
Spins and Labs and now they want to give them a go.  Maybe they made their
install medium in another system and now what?  Asking someone to borrow
them 15 minutes to make another install medium?
I always thought it was a bit strange that Media Writer is not installed by
default.

Kind regards,
Silvia
