- An installation log is one thing I'd really love to see in the Apple
- Installer. I'm sick of having to dredge through the system folder
- looking for stuff the installer put there only so I can remove it
- and place it all on the file server.

- Hey, you never know, the installer might actually be capable of
- generating one. Some sort of hidden undocumented debugging feature
- akin to Disk First Aid's progress window. Wouldn't it be nice.
- Wishful thinking strikes again.

- Share and Enjoy.
