Robert Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 I thought we'd look at this at work. Downloaded the stub, tried install.. It's supposed to popup a box so I can authenticate myself to the firewall, then it can download the rest of the files. But it (the Google installer) couldn't handle it. So, bad luck for Google. What we REALLY would have liked, is to be able to download the COMPLETE installation before starting to install it.
Inky Posted September 4, 2008 Author Posted September 4, 2008 the complete install is available on torrents.
Gryph Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 The small install file that downloads a bigger file is good for the average normal consumer but I think they should have full download available easily for power users.

I find it sad tbh. I mean, Opera is a very mature, streamlined browser, better than Chrome and FF IMO, yet it's been overshadowed already I have gone back to FF/Opera because I really do need the 'reload every' function. Also the lack of flash blocking is grating on me badly.
