Sorry AdamM I forgot to respond to your other question in that last
email. 

"I'm not familiar if adding the extra repo will
pull in the additional groups and list them in the pacakge config dialog
in Anaconda. Do you happen to know if that's the case or not? ... just
random curiousity. :)"

It does pull in other window managers including LXDE. I use Xfce and
fluxbox on my installs but I always look at the other options
listed : ) It also pulls in additional software (of course) i.e. extra
panel plugins for xfce are available. There is much more software
available prior to install using the DVD method.
