Yes The other day I downloaded OpenOffice for my VM ubuntu, and what I got were 34 installer files, all of which seemed to be needed to be run independantly, and in a particular order.

What is up with that? Why not a single installer wherein you can select to which extent you wish to install the software/software suite?

This reminded me of the last days of Dos / Win 3.11 unzipping 27 individual floppies to illegally install a game.....That was in 1996.
