Given that 9x/ME varients of Monopoly OS doesn't have any real multiuser 
support in the first place, why would the install routine even ask that 
question in a 9x/ME environment?

Only ask that question when the installer is running under a multiuser 
varient of Monopoly OS (e.g. NT/Win2k); it's much more likely that anyone 
who users a multiuser varient of Monopoly OS will know how to pick the 
correct answer.

Don't cripple the software just because the average luser can't tell his 
burro from a burrow.
