People post every time there is an update to their iDevice/Mac because the servers are being hit at that same time by many folks wanting to update on the first day after a WWDC announcement.


I wasn't aware there was an announcement, so that explains why updating my MacMini took many hours rather than a few minutes. I wasn't thinking when I hit the download and install button. I finally went to bed and just let the install do its thing.


Have a nice day.
