Didn't mean to imply Preware only installed patches and themes. I'm not sure if Filecoaster has anything that Preware doesn't, probably not. But Filecoaster I believe was out first, so that's why I use it sometimes. Also of note that Quick Install itself installs everything, although it's probably most useful for installing patches and tweaks - seems to have many more available than Preware, plus stuff that let's you backup/restore your original settings...
