I hear that.  Also, about 1 out of 4 or 5 times, something goes wrong
with the CD during usage and even though it was verified after the burn,
then target machine stops reading it correctly.  That necessitates

On the weaker of the two G4 I have at the moment, the graphical/live
install takes about 55 minutes.  On an IntelCore2, the graphical/live
install takes about 35 minutes.  YMMV.
