A short rant by Jason...
I've had to set up 2 computers over the past few days. Since I don't use restore CD's, I have to resort to downloading all of the drivers from the manufactures websites.
That normally wouldn't be a big deal, since I have a 15Mb connection. However, a connection is only as strong as it's weakest link. In this case, I think the connections of the web servers is very slow.
Can't Gateway and HP afford something faster than a T1? What about Nero.com? An hour to download their software is ridiculous.
If they don't want to spend any more money, how about letting me download the drivers using bittorrent? While they're at it, just put ALL the drivers for a particular model into a single file via bittorrent. If they did that, I could probably get all of them in less than 5 minutes.
