If it could do software like Adobe CS, MS Office etc. as well and it was a one stop solution for updates to each package, it would have a bright future.

It is good, as far as it goes, but it really needs to be extended to being a one stop centre for updates as well.

I guess it's advantageous if you're running multiple versions of 'dows?

I didn't realise this was web based, it looks pretty cool, surprised no one else has come up with this, although it has similarities with steam.

Personally I have a external disk with all my my installers ((ir)regularly updated) on it, when I do a new install I just pick and choose the stuff I want.

I've just tried it, ticked few apps, downloaded installer and launched it. It gave me an error without being specific. Maybe because I have Windows 7 64 bit...
