Except that you can use the system while it is recompiling. I switched to using Stage 3 installs about three years ago, it's so much easier and gives you a working system in under an hour. The fact that it spends the next day or two recompiling in the background, at a nice level of 19, doesn't detract from that at all. -- Neil Bothwick Sevareid`s Law: The chief cause of problems is solutions.
