My update to the WinX AA took about five minutes.
Quad Core i7 (8 logical cores)
24G RAM
and a lot of other good specs (it is a gaming laptop after all).
I always wonder why I never have any issues with WinX, while others do.

That's amazing. I wonder if another machine on your network has the install and you get it from there (peer-to-peer thing that windows does now)?
It finally completed and now my machine is very slow starting up. Consistently. The login screen is sooooo painful. Thanks M$. Thanks.

Nope. My machine is the only one with WinX. I also downloaded the installer manually.

Whoa. My ~16mo gaming desktop took a few hours to install the AU after downloading; and sat on one percentage for over an hour (at which point I was starting to wonder if it hung).
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Get a decent machine with a strong CPU and lot of MEM and an SSD. That will improve a lot.
In Word you can only store 2 bytes. That is why I use Writer.

Microsoft has lost a lot of grip. The Visual Studio is crappy and Windows 10 is a spy tool with mandatory updates.
The Windows phone are loosing market share and will someday dumped away.
I am lucky to get away from this platform.

Yes, I've long been a Windows supporter / dev.
Alas the age of Windows is over.
This IS the year of the Linux Desktop!!!
I notice how well Google does updates -- non-intrusive and they work.
When Windows is gone then it'll all be a lot easier. Only reason I run windows is for VStudio.
And I much prefer the work in Android Studio. So, so long M$. I can't wait.

They're also non-existent, if you're trying to update an Android tablet from anyone but Google itself. I suppose that's as non-intrusive as it gets.

Non-existent is the best kind of non-intrusion.

|
|

...which then allows intrusions to take place because the OS in the end never got patched...

No, I meant non-existant OS. Get rid of the OS altogether.

Don't I wish!
We're still in the century of the Linux command line, from where I sit.
And probably the millennium of the "Locate 325 text files, which are dispersed all over your system, and change three characters in each, if you want to run this program".

You're doing something wrong if your download is anywhere near even half of that, given that the full ISO fits comfortably on a single-layer DVD-R with room to spare.

Maybe I'm thinking of the VStudio download. I cannot remember now. But I just clicked a button and it said, "This will be 11GB" and I said, "I trust and obey, overlord-master-Microsoft..."

That's still on the high side. According to the MSDN download page, the largest ISO amongst the different editions of VS2015 is under 7.5GB.

Who'd of thought you need to keep your OS and tools updated?
