Holy cow, man. I don't think that you need all that junk. Unless my 28.8
suddenly acquired magic powers when I downloaded the DirectX stuff, there
is a much more reasonable alternative, because the file I got was 1.3MB and
it works fine. The remaining 127MB contains, to quote from the M$ site,
"sample source and miscellaneous utilities." What you really need, assuming
that the run-times are already installed (i.e. DirectX 7 is already on your
computer, if not, it is an extra 6.3MB), is the "Documents, Headers, and
Library Files." I don't even know what's in the SDK, but I know that my
DirectX programs work fine without it. :]
