Installation tribulations 23 Sep 2006
Derek K. Miller on installing Adobe Reader:
"Why, if I want to install Adobe Reader...should I download a program that runs an installer to install some software to download an updater than downloads more files to run an installer that installs software that is way too big and slow to start...
"...which then wants to update itself and asks me to quit all my web browsers while it downloads three separate files of between 15 and 32 megabytes in order to go from version 7.0.5 to version 7.0.8?
"...and then one of the installers fails with no explanation, so I still have version 7.0.5 after all that?"
