More on topic though, while I can accept not having updates through
Software Update (especially given they would then appear to anyone who
happens to have the Developer Tools installed, even if they have no
idea; the computer just came that way), I still don't understand the
point of the bazillion-segment approach in the most recent XCode
update... that drove me insane downloading and then reconstructing
that... why is there not just a single large download? Since I
downloaded it on dialup, don't give me any crud about it being better
in segments... find me a FTP client from the last decade which can't
resume downloads...
This topic has been done to death and Apple knows about it. I believe
they even mentioned that they're working on it at WWDC (but I don't
remember for sure). Until they fix it, we'll just have to deal with
it. Just as many FTP clients can resume, most can queue up files as
well. I use Transmit and it works beautifully. I just access the FTP
site with Transmit, drag the files over, it queues them up, and I walk
away. I never have any issues downloading the files.
