Even users with high-speed connections want to stay independent and |

free, relying on a network-connection is unsafe. |

I want my backup of my OS in my hand and not on a web-server. |

But I also prefer web-installation because I got immediately up-to-date |

files. |

Relying on a network-connection for installation is like relying on the |

Windows-Activation and Windows live-update. If you need it, you can be |
18 |
sure, that it will NOT work! Maybe they deny the access, delete the all |
19 |
the files through a accident, or some stupid captain cut off your |
20 |
backbone...*haha* |
