It's in bold too. Installing dapper from scratch definitely gets an A grade, apart from trying to get my dual monitors working, and the extremely confusing zoom/selection process on the world map used for timezone selection. You can use firefox to surf the web while it's installing too.

If I could be bothered to find firmware for my wireless card to make the new broadcom wireless modules work, I might even switch from OSX.
