Description Egor Ushakov 2007-10-12 12:34:27 UTC

There are some unused space on the installer screen when copying of files is performed,
and this phase can take some time.
It may be useful to show nice netbeans pictures with new features explained 
or useful netbeans hints
or any other information that may be of interest ot user.

Assigned to new owner.

The "show adds" thing during install sounds awfully 5-8 years ago. And does Netbeans take so long to install anywhere that this would be useful?
