So I am sat here installing Visual Studio 2003 .NET, I wont go into the whole issue of the difficulty in actually getting hold of it over the network, but why does any install really need to be more than 4 gig in size?

Well OK I guess thats a little unfair, Visual Studio is a complete development environment, but the stupid thing is I only need the c/c++ compiler out of it to do the testing I have to do this weekend.. And before you ask, no the standalone c/c++ compiler package from Microsoft doesnt work with the software in question, tried that one!

Well, its estimating another 2 hours to finish the installation, guess its time for the traditional saturday breakfast
