Windows isn't that important. ;-)

Not anymore. But now, the installer crashed (while copying python files,
it seems), and it tells me to report a bug at Launchpad. Nice...
I could give it a try with 5.10 and a distro-upgrade, but the
graphics-chipset of my notebook is only supported since 6.06. So I'll just
leave it at this for a couple of weeks; I'm busy enough without this
stuff.
