This is an unfair characterization.  The criticism isn't that the
Debian installer doesn't have graphics.  The criticism is that the
choices are both obscure and remarkably confusing in spots.

*I* don't have trouble with it either -- I've been using Debian for
several years and Linux for longer.  A first-time installer will be
(I say with complete confidence) mystified.

Now, is the first-time Linux user Debian's target?  Apparently not,
and that's okay.  Maybe Storm can cover that group.
