digitalmars.D - D installer installs outdated D

So I found myself in this page: 
http://wiki.dlang.org/Installing_DMD

Which says: Easiest and fastest way to get your DMD running on MS 
Windows is to use DInstaller

So if I download and run DInstaller, I get D v2.062

This caused me a large amount of frustration until I realized I 
was working with an outdated version :(

Best to use the installer download on the main site: 
http://dlang.org/download.html

I've changed the wiki article to link to that page instead.
