If you have a DSL or cable modem, it will take less than 10 minutes. Then (if you have Internet Explorer) you can click "Add to favorites" and in that dialog box, click "Make available offline" ... this will store everything on your computer to speed it all up after the first download. However, I will be updating the page regularly in the near future until I am satisfied with it, so your first download will shortly be outdated. I do not know if your subsequent downloads will update only the changed stuff or force you to download the whole honking thing again, sorry.
