Believe it or not they took an extensive look with programmer very familiar with this MS install package. Some things were tweaked and it went from a 10+ minute wait to a 1-2 minute wait. I can't locate the thread but it was a very interesting read.

I'm not sure why your upgrade took so long. For that matter I'm going on feel, my upgrade time to get through the "Computing Space Requirement" area might have been longer. Just for fun I'll time it next time.
