Is there a deeper reason for this? If I look at ���other systems���, they manage to have *one* download, *one* way of installing.
For me, offering *a lot* of possible different ways means that the user has to choose without knowing why there is even the option to choose���

The problem is that Pharo is different from other systems. When you install eclipse, you'll use the installed eclipse for all your projects for a long time.

Pharo images are more like a "disposable". You'll not use the same Pharo image for multiple big projects and you'll more easily throw away an image to take a new one from time to time.��

Actually I think I download and delete around 5 images/day sometime.��

This complicate a little things because sometime you want to directly download one image. Sometime you want to have one application to manage your images (Pharo launcher)��
