I just downloaded XP SP1 on a 56K modem which ran at 48K. My advice to anyone thinking of doing this is -DON'T!!! It took 4 1/2 hours with several disconnects. Although it finally installed and all seems to be operating it just took too long. Grass grows faster.

I waited until now thinking if there were any updates or bug fixes I would get the latest on a download versus ordering a CD. Next time I would opt for the CD, as it was never the $10 cost that deterred me.
