Hey everybody...I had some comments/suggestions on the install mockup.  
Assuming that this is the right place to post them -- I've been thinking about 
how to make Solaris install an 11 (on a scale of 1 to 10...), so here's my 
first comment/suggestion(s).

1) On the root password screen, I would love to see a "password strength 
indicator", similar to what Google does here:  

https://www.google.com/accounts/NewAccount?continue=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2F&hl=en

Try typing something in the Choose a Password box, and it dynamically estimates 
the strength of your password.  Nice.

2) Generally, I think the NEXT> button shouldn't be enabled, unless I've done 
the right thing.  So, on that same root password page, if the root password 
doesn't match in the two boxes, it shouldn't let me move on by clicking NEXT>.  
(Maybe it also should tell me right away with some sort of warning icon next to 
the text box, rather than allowing me to do it wrong and then giving me an 
error message, asking me to click <BACK to try again, etc.)  This same 
principle probably applies elsewhere, e.g. disable NEXT> until I've clicked the 
"I accept the license" radio button.

Mike
