an essential step but once again, it's good practice
before you install any new software or hardware.

- Unzipping The Monkey:
To save space and make downloads faster, The Monkey arrives
'zipped up'. Zipping a file is a way of compressing all
the files in the program to make them smaller and therefore
smaller and quicker to download from the Internet. Before
you can install a zipped up program you need to unzip
it.
