Showing how to enable multiverse and so on would be the best way in my
view. While alot of home users will want to be able to play DVDs and
listen to mp3's not all will. It will also leave the system set to
install a wide range of applications that they may eventually want. Of
course it also cuts down the work needed pre-install day.
