Bob-
I've looked at the agility trends and the embedded externalUI capabilities,
and it's really cool... but I'm curious, how will we solve the chicken and
the egg problem so that we can actually take advantage of these abilities?
Do you see a big push of MSI 4.5 through Windows Update or is it just going to
take a few years to establish the baseline and better to start now then later?
Thanks,
Chris

control of the end-to-end install and out of box experience for our product.
A bootstrapper gives you more control over UI than you could possibly get with
MSI's UI.
I'm sure there are plenty of reasons why the .NET team had to go with the
distribution solution they did.
It's a Windows Installer limitation (that also applies to CBS, for example) but
has been lifted in MSI 4.5 with its support for multi-package transactions.
