      Mine says it has 5 minutes to go... I don't believe it because it said it had 30 seconds remaining about 50 minutes ago.

                Mine finished in about 15 minutes. Maybe you guys should try downloading with something other than IE. :)

                    It has to extract the 500MB patch from the EXE, then Windows Installer checks the signature by loading it into a 500MB block of contiguous virtual addresses (swapping all the way - why on earth this isn't implemented by mapping the file into the address space, or just loading a relatively small buffer at a time, I don't know), then it finally gets to actually installing.

                      I think he was talking about the installation time. Not the download time. Certainly it took me almost 2 hours to intall it, but just shy of 15 minutes to download it.

                                  No, but I guess that a dual-core CPU, 2 GB of RAM and RAID0 disks have good reasons to exist. :)

                                        Duh.. Installing is different than dowloading, we have 2Gb P4 Dual Cores here and they're quick.
