Default Installs

I wonder how much stuff it installs in the default sections. You named off a lot of applications, one the biggest things I hated about Mandrake 9.0 was I had a hard time trying to customize it down. Mandrake always wanted to install 4 web browsers, 4 instant messenger programs, etc. That was the great thing about RedHat 8.0 right when it came out, it was very easy to pick what you want installed and what you didn't want installed.
