Has anyone had much luck downloading the platform SDK from Microsoft?
I tried last night but didn't have much luck.  It would transfer 3 or
4 files, then just sit there for 15 minutes then maybe another file
would go through and then it would time out.   I tried repeatedly for
hours.  Doesn't surprise me, given my past experiences with MSDN, but
I gotta put up with it if I want to get the SDK.

I'll bet you Microsoft has their download server running on an old
386sx in a Janitor closet in some massage parlor on Federal Way or
something.
