I can't get the Laravel/homestead to download?

I've typed in Vargant box add laravel/homestead

Then it starts downloading and after a certain point I get an error.

If I choose virtual box(1) I get this

Are you using windows or mac? Mac should install without a hitch. windows is more trouble.

Below is the tutorial on how to install laravel with windows. All you need to do is have composer installed. https://youtu.be/JHE7ZsVRc_U

I don't even know why I didn't think of using composer, yes I have a mac, and his way in the video did not work BUT composer just did it. Awesome, and after composer has installed it, do I need to move it per project or anything like that?
