Desired State Configuration Package Resource

I feel as though I'm missing something stupid here. After watching the presentation on CH9 about this, and reading through the TechNet library (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn249912.aspx) something just isn't working.

Here is my configuration

Configuration SetupWorkstation
{
    param ($ComputerName)
    Node $ComputerName
    {
        Package ExchangeAPI
        {
            Ensure = "Present"
            Path = "C:\Users\jspatton\Downloads\EwsManagedApi.msi"
            Name = "Microsoft Exchange Web Services Managed API 2.0"
            ProductId = "6EE9E2DF-2CD7-4952-A649-95DEA8697BD8"
            }
        Package GPMCScripts
        {
            Ensure = "Present"
            Path = "G:\Downloads\Application Installs\MSI\GPMCSampleScripts.msi"
            Name = "GPMC Scripts"
            ProductId = "526AA506-D355-4D52-A6BF-B09D4A02AA8B"
            }
        }
    }

SetupWorkstation -ComputerName 'it08082'

Start-DscConfiguration -Wait -Verbose -Path .\SetupWorkstation

If I go look in add/remove programs these apps are not listed anywhere, and yet if I run the config again I get

VERBOSE: Perform operation 'Invoke CimMethod' with following parameters, ''methodName' = SendConfigurationApply,'className' = MSFT_DSCLocalConfigurationManager,'namespaceName' = root/Microsoft/Windows/D

There are no errors in the DSC log, and for what it's worth I only see two different event id's 4197 and 4102, can someone enlighten me as to how to get an app to install? also, had to do some powershell voodoo to get the productid, without that everytime I ran the config it kept processing thinking it was doing something.
