Question about DLing

I just registered to play the 10 days for free. BTW if anyone wants an extra 10days for free let me know.

Question is when I DL the actual game how long does it usually take? Seems like its taking forever.... Average time says 9 hours... I have a pretty fast computer too.

Comp speed has little to do with it. Has to do with Blizzard using a torrent system as their way of dl, which just isn't that effective imnsho.

Might want to try and dl the trial client from fileplanet. Or get one of the old beta clients instead. Will probably go quicker than the dl from Blizzard. You patch it up properly and make the trial account afterwards and you'll be ready to buzz along nicely.

Link to UK Beta client.
