We're doing an IT refresh at work and have some old mid-2011 iMacs in a classroom. I thought I'd just try wiping one using internet recovery to see what happened (it failed), but thought the estimated download time was pretty hilarious. It did jump down from 53 minutes to 31 before it decided to give up 🤣

Shhh, I don't want my boss to find out - I've asked if it's okay if I can have the next 245,000 years to finish this job while the rest of the team deal with the rollout
