Slightly OT: downloading Xcode

[Jim At Consensus]

Lest anyone think this is a rural issue. 

I live in a major metropolitan city in the US. (Seattle, Wa) And am still on DSL and can’t get cable or fiber to my house without paying to have poles placed and or conduit run underground... very expensive. Our DSL is over copper lines from 1936 whose insulation (lead) has been riddled with holes. 

When it rains, we have no internet and usually no phone. To get Apple updates, I either lose a day or go someplace with a reliable hispeed connecton.
