I figured it had something to do with testing... good thinking.

Yup, thats what I was referring to. I removed it and replaced the welcome.rtf with the original from the retail after renaming it. I like the logo though. I know I can edit the images after they are done but is there a way to change the DefaultDesktop.jpg for the installer?

I know the script is written in English but I wasn't sure if the scripts took out all languages other than English no matter what the user was operating on. I use English so it doesn't pertain to me, but if there is a way for the script to check the system's used language and retain that in the Installer (or allow for a selection of languages) that would benefit non-English users. I know my stripped PC compatible disk only use 3.56GB so there should be room for the languages... "should" being the key word. It might get tight.

Yeah, I was referring to the update and the PC with update.
Its not a big deal but I've got an old iBook that is PPC and thought it would be nice to install Leopard to it with all the updates (since I've already purchased my retail DVD).

One big HIGH-FIVE is the easiness of editing the scripts to make it work the way I want. I like this feature a lot. Thanks for passing this on to the site and I'll continue to help test this and other new releases as they come out. PM me if you need/want anything further.
