Hi Gregg,

An installer in REBOL ... mmm great idea !
FYI, there is a Frenchman who already wrote an installer 
(http://etienne.alaurent.free.fr/rebol/tools/install-rimaker.r)
which I didn't use.

I personally tested:
* Setup2Go: (+) easy interface,possibility to add a passw to control installation
                (-) slow interface, system events do not always work (reboot after 
install...)
* Install2Go: (+) interface
                  (-) slow
* InnoSetup: (+) lot of possibilities
                 (-) interface, not always clear
* Setupfactory: (+) lot of possibilities, S/N generation
                    (-) didn't find any

We use now Setup2Go for our software distribution, because the installation control by 
password is a requirement.
If it should not, I would go for SetupFactory, or your product ;-)

This is a _very_ succint analysis. I hope this helps anyway :)
