A megabit is an eighth of a megabyte (8 bits = 1 byte, except possibly on internet connections where I think stop bits are used)

Got 6 meg DSL over here. Of course, it never gets anywhere near that fast, but it could if the link was good enough.

At my house, I have the cable line coming in,

being split about 4 times, and one of those splits being split for the modem...

slows it down quite a bit...

And noone would ph34r darklords p*ssy connection...

So does mine. Then again, my mom recently tried to install Gateway.Net v5.0 and now Internet Explorer doesn't work anymore. Or so she says; I'm at my dad's currently.
