I didn't have any trouble getting Wolfram to send me a copy of 2.0.4.5 which
is supposed to only load the necessary packages as needed.  However, once
I got it, the 'thin' kernel didn't work at all.  After two phone calls to
Wolfram the Tech support person told me that the thin kernel didn't work.  The 
full kernel does work and fixes minor problems with the previous 2.0.* release.
