I note a discussion from March of last year about MSI packagers, but
want to revisit the issue.

We had a fellow (who no longer works here, though not because of this
issue) using the WinInstall LE package try to build an MSI for
MSOffice 2003, and it was a miserable failure on the one desktop in
production he tried it on - the Controller's PC. Ouch. And it took him
a couple of weeks, if not longer, to actually produce this package.
Double ouch.

Now my IT Director is a bit gun-shy on my asking to get one of my
juniors involved in building an MSI package for MSOffice 2003 - he's
afraid that it will take forever and not work well.

I'm fairly certain it can't be *that* hard, if the proper tools are used.

Can anyone point me in a good direction for the proper software and
decent directions on how to do this? Bonus points if it includes
directions on how to deploy via GPO, but I'll take a file that the
end-user can click on and have it install.
