a graphical installer may help desktop users, but is totally unusable 
for server installations where you either want to install automatically 
(boot via pxe, mount some stuff via NFS, install the system, reboot and 
off you go) or where you just have serial access.

Anyway, the topic of graphical installer was discussed several times 
already :)

best regards,
Marian

PS.: I do like the layout of the new website :)
