it’s only fun when the 3GB download fails with just 1 second to go Wednesday, September 14th, 2011
I watched the Windows 8 Developer keynote yesterday and although Julie Larson-Green’s demo was brutally crashtastic I still liked what I saw.
So this morning I jumped on my super fast FTTC connection and grabbed the bits.
I do know better than to trust IE with a big download job like this but the coffee was yet to kick in.
It came down fast enough but died right at the end. Doh.
Sadly in this age of metered/capped internet this download has now cost me 6GB.
The solution – Download Them All for Firefox.
This post is less of a Tech Tip and more of a don’t be an idiot and trust IE with anything important.
