I've recently had a very similar experience to Spencer. The MikTex project page 
assumes you know what you want; I don't, so it seemed best to download the 
whole thing. Ouch.

Would it be straightforward for Duncan Murdoch to add some brief instructions 
on "what bit of MikTex to get" to the excellent "Building R for Windows" page?

Google for MiKTeX Manual and look at the R batch utilities and info at:
