Wow

What is the update procedure this time? Can I simply run the installer and it will do the rest?

Yer and I just read they modelled it for when seat belts are released and before seat belts are re-fastened again (and in cruise ofc), as there the toilets highest demand times. OCD case if there ever was one.

u  might  wanna  hold  till later  its  saying  for  me  11  hours  to  download:)

I can't even seem to get on the download page .

Yep, me too... Servers seem to have crashed...

(on a side note, @pete_auau - why do you put two spaces between all words? (sorry, but it's been driving me crazy! 😄) )
