Bleh

Migrating PCs today, and I tried to install Palm Desktop on my PC so Eeyore would be able to hotsync her palm in her account on my Win2k machine. Well, Palm Desktop doesn't understand any machine that doesn't have a C: drive as it's root, and refuses to install.

To all developers who use install applications, and set them up to automatically install on a specific drive/path: NEVER ASSUME THE PATH BEGINS WITH C:! Use the damn variables InstallShield or whatever installer you use to select the root drive, path, and programfiles path, and those of us with custom setups won't be getting this irritated. Thank you.
