I second the second; I noticed that Python installed on the "wrong
drive" (i.e. the W9x installation) only after installation was
complete. I don't know (and can't check at the moment) whether it
offered me to pick e:. It probably did, but I don't know for sure.

I have the same complaint, and I'd happily test any updated installer.
