And I'm right where I was when I tried to give
it a
shot back in 05/06. If they made the .Net
install
smaller then good grief....because it took
forever to
download and install on my machine. Then it
required a
reboot. Next the Express edition did something
for a
while and required a reboot. Now after the
reboot its
been installing for about the past 30 mins
and....nothing.
I don't know about others and all the FUD the
spread
but when I switched to Linux I learned to expect
everything to just install and run. I say I had
to
LEARN that because I previously learned exactly
what
I'm getting out of Windows right this
instant....something that doesn't work.
Update: Its been about an hours since I started
and it finally finished. I was hoping that it
had actually hung more than it just taking THAT
long to install. Thats just ridiculous.
