Took me 85 seconds on 4-MBIT cable.



Damn you. :-) I'm looking at 2 hours to get it on my dial-up connection,
assuming I can maintain around 5K a second.

Haha. :-) Actually I prefer to avoid a high speed connection because of
the enormous potential that goes with it. Normally I'm on a 50 hours per
month account, but sometimes I buy a month of unlimited dial-up if I need to
do large downloads. The Painkiller 1.3 patch comes to mind there!

Hmmm..... What of this "potential" do you want to avoid?

Are you trying to rationalize your dial-up???

Bull... 18 seconds if you pulled it off another machine in your 100mbit LAN.
Definitely not coming off the net though.

Installed 9.0c, it hasn't done anything evil, yet.
Nothing interesting to report with my 9800 Pro.
