just slow, lethargic and a complete waste of time. It doesn't make Quark suck any less.
If you're on the Mac, minimize the installer while it's doing its thing. This speeds up the installer by roughly an order of magnitude. I think that's Apple's fault though -- their installer app updates the display for every file and moves the progress bar a teensy bit. When the app is minimized, it no longer needs to do these screen updates and the installation flies.

wait 'till you do the PC installer. That one is only 160mb!
Yeah, too bad it has to make 4 or 5 copies of itself in your Temp folder before it actually starts doing anything. 1 of those I'll blame on the Windows Installer technology, the rest are Quark's fault.
