Is it true that to get the .NET 3.5 runtime onto a fresh XP installation
requires a 200MB download?
It's not entirely clear. If you download the whole thing, it is indeed
that big. However, if you download the 2.5MB bootstrapper, it will only
download the bits it needs. For instance, I *guess* that it won't
bother downloading the 64 bit CLR if you're running on a 32 bit
machine.
When I installed it on an XP machine with .NET 2 on, it was only about
60MB after the initial bootstrap.
