Cool, thanks for all the tips everyone. I actually just meant the
installer should be idiot proof, as the idiot in question will likely be
me!

Do you think sqlite on os x would be ok to backend a web site? In this
case the issue is that I would like a turbogears app to be usable off
the same database, but uptime from the local machine using the wxPython
app is critical while uptime from the web is gravy and will be low
traffic. So even if they aren't really set up to serve, an underpowered
server will be totally fine for web access.

Thanks again!
