I found this Engadget story amusing: http://tinyurl.com/363ojs
Summary: Since Apple's new MacBook Air doesn't include a CD/DVD drive, they bundle a program to enable sharing of a disc drive from another machine. Apparently the (Mac) installer is 43 MB. It would be interesting to know why it needs to be so big when the equivalent functionality in Plan 9 would take, what, 3 lines of shell script? Might have been less work just to embed Inferno and be done with it! ;) One wonders at what point the law of diminishing returns kicks in when it comes to software... John
