Ya know, I get so sick of people bitching about bytes and bits. Communications are NOT measured in Bytes. End of story.
Storage is measure in Bytes. Again...end of story.
A 56kb modem is in bits, not bytes, or it would be called a 7kByte.
A T1 is not called a 125000Byte line, it is a 1Mbit line.
If you don't have a fast connection, I don't know what to tell you. Other than get one. Please don't try to confuse the issue with the bit/byte stuff...it's immature.
Don't be jealous...
