Add an installation checklist allowing the user to select apps for automatic installation after OS is fully updated.

It would be nice if the application could pull the most recent executables from a compendium of up-to-date free applications. Naturally paid apps would need to be handles individually; however, having a "feed" from a site like "download.com" or "Softpedia" would expedite the procedure substantially.
This couldn't, of course, cover all applications. There is no foreseeable reason that a "Top 50" from various categories is unmanageable. It would make a great "slipstreaming" application too!!
