Sorry if this is a dumb question, but...   do image catalogs make sense 
if you have only one machine to install to?   I see people discuss them 
frequently on this and other forums, but I really don't understand the 
point.  Why waste gigabytes of disk space on CD images when you can just 
load the PTFs directly from the CD?
