Mostly the Toolkit is useful if you have a box that will be difficult to hook up to the internet or if you want to do the primary installation for someone who is less than perfectly computer literate or some other odd circumstances. (What specific packages are on the CDs will vary with release and so I won't hazard a guess.)
