To Internet-install or not to...

From http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Distribution :

Download a single small CD and install from the Internet

Under the distribution 'os' folder (mirror list), in a folder named 'images', you can find a small boot.iso file, which can be burned to CD and used to start an Internet-based install. Please be aware that there are reliability concerns associated with this installation method, and it should probably not be attempted by a novice user or the faint-of-heart. This method is often of interest to testers.

Have anyone any experience with this method of installation? If I install from a DVD, then most of the packages would be updated from the internet anyway, so why not start there?

I'd like to know what those 'reliability concerns' are, though. Pro and cons, anyone? :-)
