SMS Installer - Are you still using it in 2012?

I am a new member, but have been lurking for quite some time. I find myself using SMS Installer for different tasks/deployments still. What about you? Are you still using SMS Installer?

Also, since Windows 7 is here, and 64 bit is in, what are the known bugs with SMS Installer? Limitations, and workarounds? I've only been using it for a few months but find it very useful. Thanks for your help.

You know from time to time I do still use it. Some customers are still using it because they have all these scripts they developed for things. Plus there are some times when I want to quickly see what's getting installed. But when it comes to doing repackaging projects for customers ... no... always AdminStudio. When I'm writing quick scripts or utilities I use AutoIT. When just need an admin script I use Powershell.

There are a ton of bugs that I've found over the years... just in general. With x64 you have to be mindful of paths and registry keys. Terry

Thanks. Since I just started using it for certain things, I guess I'm curious. Is there some post that already has some common bugs? Or would you mind sharing some? Thanks alot.
