Yes.  One user on this machine.

Hmmm.  If I uninstall the -net install, how would I do a normal user install?

I really don't need the -net install.  I only used the -net install because the
docs seemed to insist that Linux users do so.  It would be just as easy
(probably easier) to do a single user install on each machine.
