#122720 - I've found it ridiculous too.
Responding to: ???'s previous message
The download time and install-time are quite cumbersome. I think this is because of the use of HLL's. If they'd go back to writing their code in ASM, things would be MUCH better. What's more, they'd quit putting in needless "features" that don't work and screw up the works, thinking it's no trouble to fix 'em later.

Their latest 200 MB release has already reached the third patch level and it's not yet 6 months old. It's also miles from working, even barely.
