Knowing that FSX will ship in two DVDs...

Place your bets.

Well, PILOTS FS GLOBAL MESH IS 4 DVD's and it takes about 20 minutes to install.

Sit back and read a manual!  ;D

[Saitek]

Sure under an hour.

Will depend on DVD drive speed (for reading) and computer speed (for data extraction from the compressed archives). Could not tell for sure, but I think an average computer would need at least 30 minutes...

Under an hour, easily, unless someone has an IDE drive and a crappy disk drive. My 5 gig games take about 15minutes.

Depends on how big my HD is by then . . .

considering vista was abke to fit on 1 DVD, and that took about an hour, I don't think it can take that long.

all depends on the computer, my old computer took over 2 hours to install FS 2004, then my new one only took a couple minutes, i had time to get a drink bring it back to the computer, put in a new cd, drink half of it, put in new cd, and so on in that kind of time period

So you measure the installation time by how often you can finish a drink, eh?
