these repositories to expose their search capabilities
through Windows and thus get more value out of the
repositories for users.

ure the disk image to install applications on first run,
giving the illusion of a thick image but installing the

they aren’t as complex to develop and do not require
a software distribution infrastructure. They do require
longer installation times, however, which can raise initial
deployment costs.
