> You need maybe 30 min to bootstrap Arch

If you know exactly what you're doing, ok, but why should I remember something that I'll do few times and that can be done in a nice GUI installer?

I have installed Arch in VMs for several reasons and once I installed Arch in my computer because "why not?". I spent some hours (yes, hours) installing arch, configuring post-install stuff, trying to figure out why my wi-fi wasn't working and installing basic stuff (Firefox, KDE apps, Emacs, etc). When I finished, I looked to it and thought "well, after all this time what I have here is a Manjaro".
