Isn't System/CD Burning quite hidden?
System/ is where support goes, or teccies, but my mom would not dare
to even open that menu - or even my fairly techsavvy wife.

Ok, I can agree with that, but 'Multimedia' is such an... ugly, 
outdated, long word for
wathing DVD's or listening to music. Maybe rename it to 'Music & Video' 
would do it.

Btw, shouldn't medias in rpmdrake be called mediums? I might have gotten 
it completely
wrong though.
'What medium would you like to use to install....?'  - 'CD' or 'FTP'....
