Speaking of the MSI installer, it basicly sucks, and I can't understant
why all the win32 Postgres software uses it.....

IMHO the best open source Installer available is Inno Setup.

It can do everything that MSI can do and then some.

I think it's a shame that PG Admin use a Microsoft technology for it's
setup program.
