VS 2005 Install, Take 2

I have now installed VS2005 Pro twice, and I'm still struck by a few oddities of the installer.

For instance: Why are we still forced to install the J# redistributable? What is this Document Explorer? Why do I have to install support for the Compact Framework (both 1.1 and 2.0)? Why do I have to install support for devices? All of these things are installed regardless of your options... and are not even listed in the custom install options.

What kind of crap is that?

I have taken the road to development. It is less worn for wear; and is littered with the bodies of those who could not survive the journey. It is a path written by the strong, feared by the weak, and controlled by the fearless. However, it is the road I must take to become a Software Engineer.
