Nuts, I've forgotten most of my own experience, but I do  remember that 
somewhat -- IIRC it was a sort of 'close but no cigar' sort of thing -- 
you had to know what you were doing to use it, and of course the whole 
idea is that at that point the newbie has no idea. Seems to me that what

setup (masochistic)', 'normal setup (sane)', and 'lots of bells and 
whistles setup (rococo)' with a friendly reminder that one can always 
rerun 'xxx' to change to something else if one wants to experiment.  I 
remember being terrified of the installer, now that I recall.
