I like having just one CD, with the vast majority of what I want to install. It takes me a few minutes tops to download what I want from Extras now, versus the many times that it took to install the developer packages I wanted with F7T1...
there should be a everything set (2 DVDs) for people that prefer it and want to install it on many systems. the only problem could be mirros but it can be shipped as a bittorent only download. And fedora should stop to really on a broadband internet connection. It should be able to be installed without network access [1]. And software should be able to be installed from the media afterwards, even for new users [2]. We had this before moving to yum/pirut so its a regession that should be fixed, I would even consider this as a blocker.

1:
Its only possible if you only want the packages that are on the spin that you have downloaded.

2:
I know that its possible to create custom local repos and/or use a dvd as a repo.
But try to tell this a new user coming from windows...
What would he do? Either go to an other distro or even worse back to windows.
