One consideration, since most of us are installing from
CD/DVDs, would be the write speed of the ROM drive. I have, 
besides my 3gig box, two older 1gig boxes I install Live 
CDs on. Takes both about 45 minutes. My 3box, half that. I
would imagine install time = box size (+) write speed (+)
RAM. On my 1gig boxes the first thing that happens is a
screen appears that says: You don't have much RAM on this
system, would you like to install the SWAP Partition now?
Translation: hope your not late for an appointment.

So, a question is: are people installing off of CDs, using
older/slower boxes? And those using DVDs newer/faster? If
so, then those using DVDs would seemingly need fewer panels
or screens, since they will be enjoying setting up their
desktop sooner, anyway. Whereas, those using older/slower
may need more panels/screens; anything to breakup the 
monotany of watching that scroll-bar crawl across their 
screen.
