What would happen is that it would work for an hour and then keep repeating downloading .NET 2.0 Bare in mind I do not want .NET on my computer anyway... I tried three times - same thing. So I removed it all. Finally it downloaded the .NEt and started installing and then it got stuck doing something. It does not appear to track disk space before or during download/install. I always liked the Wise installer - never got anywhere with installshield - always gave me fits. Don;t know if this is install shield but it feels like it. So now I have tried four times to get it installed but still no go. I think my 15 days may be running out :) While I am on the /rant/ please codegear stop using the registry. Its a disaster. Keeps growing never gets smaller, causes all kinds of grief. It does not appear it is possible to redirect anything to drive E: where I have lots of room. Why? Or maybe I never got to the Delphi part since I never got through the .NET part. hhhmmmm For fun go to: http://forums.cnet.com/5208-7590_102-0.html?forumID=67&threadID=92780&messageID=1047299 and look at post 6 This is one very good reason not to use .NET or the registry.

I installed to E: I could not find the sample files - it put those and a lot of other files on C: anyway! Awful. BUT the IDE is snappy and feels good! I wish there were more samples - doesn't look like they have added many lately.
