[Live-demo] mac/windows installers

[Cameron Shorter]

Frank,
I really appreciate the attention to detail you are applying to your 
testing and reports of issues. It is this level of detail that makes a 
great different to the end user experience.

Sorry for my delayed responses, work has been busy over the last week, 
and I'm trying to catch up.

Yes, I agree. Feel free to correct this.

Windows and Mac installers are loaded using:
bin/load_mac_installers.sh and
bin/load_win_installers.sh

On previous DVDs, these windows and mac installers, were in the root 
directory of the DVD. In future, I agree that it would be good to 
provide a symbolic link to these directories. (It is possible that we 
already do this).
