My own 3c. 

1c) I consider leaving a folder full of install files on the desktop absolutely
AWFUL. I don't care what the reason. If they must be left (which I find highly
questionable, see 2c) at least put them somewhere out of the way, not in My
Documents and certainly NOT on the Desktop. Let me say it again. AWFUL.

2c) Repair? I have not yet encountered a single Windows user who was even aware
that there is a 'repair' option, ever. Let alone used it. If any installed
program becomes broken they all simply run the installer again from the CD or
wherever. And in the unlikely case that some user expects a repair option and
can't find one, I'm sure running the installer again would be the next most
obvious action. 

3c) Having an installer within an installer on the CD seems totally pointless,
and adds a big long delay which causes most users to assume the CD didn't
autorun and go looking for it in My Computer, and then get twice as annoyed when
two installers pop up because they manually ran a second one when the first was
quietly loading itself into ram. I've been remastering the CD image before I
give it to people so that it simply runs the 'real' installer from the
beginning. No delay. No messy folder on the desktop. If they need to repair they
can just put the CD back in. If they ever have to repair, it's probably time to
upgrade to the next version anyhow.
