Description of problem:

Totally cute:
"...They fight crime."
"Do you have stairs in your house?"
etc

Perhaps inappropriate:
"If it breaks, you get to keep all 1445 pieces".  Yikes, please tell me this
isn't going into the official release.  What if M$ had this during their
install?!?

In fact most of the slides would not be appropriate for final release.  PLEASE
make sure your marketing department has input on this.

Thanks,
Josh

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Boot into graphical installer
2.choose configs and packages
3.Pay attention to the panels at the bottom during the "Installing Packages"
stage
	

Actual Results:  Several panels appeared.  A funny but potentially bad one
appears (see above).

Expected Results:  Something a little less offensive ;). 

Additional info:

Cute if it's a beta-only thing.

Yes, this is only a beta thing.  Marketing gets us the "real" panels just before
we go gold, so usually the beta just has a static image.  We decided that we
wantes something a little more fun for this beta.

Thanks for the response.  As someone who defends the legitimacy of your product
on a daily basis in an enterprise environment, that makes me feel a little
better :) .

It certainly made the install more fun!  Keep up the good work.
(sorry if I sounded stuffy earlier).
