A custom installation? I doubt it. Either a) you read fast and are
fast with the mouse b) MacOS doesn't provide for too much tweaking or
c) you did a typical install. Besides, you didn't move your HDD to the
computer with the CD (OK, OK, that's a fast one. :) )

It ran perfectly fine right from the beginning. Of course, with Linux
you can tweak and tune all you like. That's what I am doing now,
making little scripts to use as shortcuts in KDE to automate the most
common tasks. Kool :)
