Actually that's KBytes - or 528 kBits/second. The line is rated at 640 kb/s download, but slightly over 520 is what I usually get. That allows me to download a full cdrom in about 2 1/2 hours. I just download the 3 CDRom Red Hat 7.3 distro in less than 8 hours. Took weeks on my old 14.4 modem. Glen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
