Ever notice the trend at Microsoft these days? I tiny internet bootstrapper
to trick the user into thinking it's a small download and then hit em up for
the real download(s) once they have comitted to the install and choosen which
features they want. SysAdmins who want the "simple" single MSI are then
forced to go through manual procedures to create the "offline" installer.
Hardly "simple" but driven no doubt by business concerns such as the two that
you mentioned and the desire to drive down their bandwidth costs.
