I too found it enjoyable.

Installing an operating system when you're not very tech savvy can be stressful. If we added some sort of background music that was upbeat yet not so "noisy" that some would consider it stressful, then we could considerably improve the "install experience". If people don't enjoy the music, we can always provide an option to disable it (I believe Windows' installer has this option).

From a technical stand-point, I wouldn't think this would be too hard to implement since you're already at the desktop. However, would people put a stink up about bloat or impact on performance?

This is obviously of low-priority but it is something that would add noticeable polish to the install process.

On a side note, I might have a piece of music that would be good for this. If there is any more interest in this item then I'd be happy to propose it (I already have the Author's permission to use it if we wanted to).

Anyhow, this is my first contribution to launchpad *grins* - I hope I didn't do anything out of bounds.
