Wow! Creo 1 documentation is great!

[JoshH]

Kudos to the PTC Education team for launching some fantastic documentation!

I just saw Mark Fischer's announcement on the FIRST Community page about Creo 1 and the new documents (copied below).

I have to say that is some of the best documentation I've seen for PTC products to date!

Thanks guys!

Three failed attempts to download code .zip file. Corporate network; Save to Local drive; IE8.

[VladimirN]

What you mean?

[skarlsruher]

Registered to get Crei 1.0 Edu Edition. Got email with link to download the application (http://apps.ptc.com/schools/Creo1_Educational_DVD.zip) - a 4.06 GB file. Fails to complete -- about 2.5 GB makes it down.

[JoshH]

That's unfortunate (trying to be politically correct)

I used the same link to do the download, although I don't recall whether I was on my corporate LAN or home cable modem. Even after getting the file, it's a bear to get it distributed to teams.

[VladimirN]

This file is very large (4.06 Gb), so use a program "Free Download Manager" to download this ".zip" archive (it will pause and resume the download without data loss).

[skarlsruher]

No good on corporate infrastructure. Cannot load.

[VladimirN]

Ask your IT administrator to help you download and install this program. You can also try to download the file from your home computer and then burn it to disk/flash/HDD.
