    Could be. If I recall, it's well over 100 meg. The initial time estimate is usually way off, but I'd still bet on several hours. Go to the library and download it onto a thumb drive.

    That is kind of long, but then again OpenOffice is a 150 MB download.

    On dialup yes, it's like writing a novel with a chisel and stone tablet, you'll be there a while.
