Yup.  That's why I don't use pure Arch, it takes a lot more time at 
setup than I care to devote.  Manjaro has been doing me a lot of good 
for quite some time now.  Before that I used Archbang.  Manjaro includes 
lots of GUI config tools.  Not up to Ubuntu's GUIzation, but a lot more 
than pure Arch.
