    It looks more like a Quest for Glory, or a King's Quest!

    Caeser III is on sale on Steam! Although for me to install it I think was only a few seconds.

      Of course not - that'd be silly and inaccurate. We use the well-tested Random.Next method, of course.

      Reminds me of the old mainframe days when if something was expected to take a while to install or run, the programmer would display: "Sit back, this will take a while."

        This is what one of our iMacs has been saying about the Sierra install for the past 30 mins. I always find it puzzling that showing an estimation of remaining time is so difficult. [Edit: 1hr later it's now saying "40 seconds remaining". 1 hour later...]

          You obvious are slow to upgrade..... :doh: or new to MacOSX.... :confused: having had that estimation since the Leopards grew old and the Lions hatched :zzz: I recall that especially true when you have anything else in /usr/local, or /Users//Applications, it doesn't like competition from other developers :wtf: And don't think about trashing and then do a TimeCapsule "restore applications" either you'll need even more :java: :java: :java: :java: Thus, think about it this way: It's silly season, even computers have the right to be silly this season ;) :cool: :suss:
