Going through Windows Update, it's only a 70MB or so download.

The ISO has all three architectures, but you can download x64 vs x86
separately.

It's a shame they won't split it into the 3 architectures on the disk. That
download has 32/64 and I64 all on the one iso.

 

Still, what's a 500gb download times 300 million copies .

 

I'm sure when it gets on Windows Update it will be a lot smaller.

It's letting me download the 2GB file without a DL manager... wonder how
long that will last.  And it appears to be just one download irrespective of
32/64-bit.
