Any news on how this plays on less-than-stellar connections? And does it actually install on Win7-64? (Since the demo wouldn't?)

Yeah, Creston, is there perhaps something else about your system build that might have played a part in that? I have two systems running Win 7 64bit, one with an older Radeon card and one with a newer Nvidia card, and neither had problems installing or playing the beta. Not saying D3 might not have a problem with the installer..I am just very certain it isn't Win 7 64 bit that is the determining factor.
My cable internet connection had occasional rubber-banding, so a 'less then stellar' internet connection can probably expect the same. Didn't seem to have much to do with what was going on in the game. Got it in-town or in-combat...a few enemies or a few dozen enemies. Just a result of the system. Be interesting to see if they improve that somehow. I wouldn't know how or if they can.
Yeah, it seemed to be hit and miss who got it and who didn't. Some nice soul posted a link on how to fix the install issues, but it seemed like a lot of fiddling, so I never bothered with it.
Enough people are saying that it's been fixed that I'm not too worried about it. The internet issues are more troublesome for me, but from the descriptions, it seems like most problems are server-side rather than connection.
I appreciate the feedback. Thanks
