The largest file I ever downloaded is 32.9 (the Quicktime trailer for
the movie, "The Others"). I have a DSL connection, and the fastest
download time I ever noticed was 74k/sec. With a 56K modem and a
dial-up connect the best I ever saw was 48k. The download time would
run 7:24 at best, 11:26 at best with the 56K modem.
What's your connection, and how fast could it bring done a 690MB
file? (I want one....)
