This machine is impressive. It is very well made - with a very pleasing exterior, and a very clean and well laid out interior. It provides more features at this price point than you can find elsewhere. For example - it gives two USB 3.1 Gen 2 ports, and a USB C port on the front! The engineering is well thought out. For example, the memory is two paired 4GB sticks, to optimize throughput. The machine is snappy and does the jobs it was designed for very well. One thing to take note of is that the machine is not designed for high end gaming, and really can't be upgraded to do so - it has a 180W interior power supply and a proprietary motherboard. But it does all the tasks characteristic of a home pc very well, and somewhat beyond. I am doing photo editing using Adobe Lightroom and Adobe Photoshop Elements, and they work very well. I have paired the PC with a 28" Samsung 4K monitor, and the images are stunning. For the price, you won't find a better machine anywhere.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Step into the role of a Jedi Padawan who narrowly escaped the purge of Order 66. Engage in innovative lightsaber and Force combat on a galaxy-spanning adventure as you stay one step ahead of the Empire and its deadly Inquisitors. Continue your training, explore the mysteries of the Force and become the Jedi you were meant to be. This bundle includes an Xbox One X, an Xbox Wireless Controller, a full-game download of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Deluxe Edition, a 1-Month Xbox Live Gold subscription, a 1-Month Xbox Game Pass for Console trial, and 1-Month of EA Access.* Whether you’re playing games, watching 4K movies, or streaming gameplay, there's never been a better time to game with Xbox One.
 

How long does it take to download the game provided with this bundle for a typical household (one with download speed capped at about 10Mbps)?

I did some looking up on the web and found that a speed of 10 Mbps corresponds to 4.5 GB/hr. So a 45GB download takes 45GB / 4.5 GB/hr = 10 hr. This of course assumes that the download speed remains fixed at 10 Mbps.

What fraction of a major game is included on a physical disk? Is installation aided significantly by having a physical disk?

I just learned that you can get this information in the "Queue" screen, where it details the size of the content from the Disk, and the size of the content from the Network (what has to be downloaded over the internet). What has to be downloaded over the internet does indeed vary from title to title, but significant gains can be obtained by using physical media for those of us with relatively modest internet speeds. I just installed "The Witcher 3 - Complete Edition", and all the content came from the disk - and the install was completed in less than a half hour! To me this is a compelling reason (and happy news) to use physical disks!
