But really... what IS the problem here? :-p
You download TortoiseSVN, install, possibly restart the PC, open an explorer window, right-click, select Checkout from the TortoiseSVN context menu, enter the URL as provided elsewhere around here, enter your username/password, and way-hey... Bob's your uncle. (more or less... this is from memory!)
You can download the latest Max core code... latest IDE (probably?)... latest MaxGUI - which I expect is what you want.
There's not even anything to "learn"... no command-line nonsense... no MD5 "crap"...
When you want to see if there's anything new, just right-click on the folder, and choose Update....
But hey, if you don't want to tinker with all this new-fangled-ness, I'm sure there will be another "official release" in due course. Which is what the "weekend warriors" will be more than happy to wait for, I'm sure.
