Ed, lets be careful here.. they did directly say the software included ...
I don't mean to pick nits.. but really .. that first screen shot, clearly says Itunes 8 includes "Genius" and the Genius Sidebar .... then the next paragraph says something about browsing visually with the new "Grid" layout.. and then the last line in the picture says something about Itunes 8, Itunes U and *now* being accessible through Window-Eyes 7

ALL of that seems like its mentioning new features and items.. while not a check box up there .. it does in fact state new things that are included ...

no.. does it declair directly that if you don't have bonjour it will install it, or that it will also install the mobile devices crap (as someone else pointed out, I don't use it and it WOULD be nice to have options NOT to install that in the first place) but that's outside the box.. we already know apple isn't declairing that.. because they are parts of "Itunes" itself.. (to borrow from microsoft) and that without them the software wouldn't run right.. which I guess you have to argue that you have to install it to then uninstall those parts you don't need. happy

So... they do mention new stuff... but not to what many of us would consider is a valid extent.
