Why the heck can't the computer be scripted to do this for me? Why? Because Windows apps are binary, and don't invite interaction from anything but pretty pictures on the screen. If I were on a 21st century operating system, like Linux, I could write a shell script or an ebuild or the like and I would mark checkboxes indicating just which apps I wanted and I'd hit Go.
well, you should investigate MSI scripts. they can do a bunch of that for you. Just put the MSI in a location, and have it reference where to get the stuff... i've never done it, but some ridiculously high-paid windows weenie at work did it for all the standard software packages we use. might be something to look into!
