If anything can be said to be a bright spot where a 160 MPH hurricane is concerned, it's that Dean's forward motion is at 20 MPH, which is about as fast as hurricanes ever move. The last thing anyone in Cntral America wants is a replay of 1998's Hurricane Mitch which, due to it's slow forward motion, beat hell out of Honduras for days and killed thousands. Dean will be bad, but it will be over with pretty quickly.
