Jimmy here is a bit more detailed explanation to your question, at your speed you could download a  4 mega byte aprox.

file, or picture  in one second.

in 2 seconds you could get a 44 page manual including pictures in PDF format.

You could watch 5 separate DVDs at full resolution and listen to 4 separate audio CDS at the same time.

Alternatively you could have 38,000 skype voice conversations at the same time, do you think you could manage that 🙂

Interim Satellite service is sold out.  The new ones in 2015 should be a huge improvement.

Thanks for the info! I remember people talking about waiting for things to load a long time ago, so looks like I stepped in at a good time. I click and it's there!

And adds appearing on the pages...That would frustrate me!

I am of little faith .....

By 2015, Hockey & The Rabbitt  will have sold the NBN to Telstra to pay down the $1/2 trillion deficit & we'll still be stuffed ...

I don't, but will after I move. I'm going to set up a nice audio system and link my computer to a 50 inch flat screen.

I don't really need to get stuff of the net though. I get about 1,000 channels, of which I only use about 100, with about 50 on a favourites button. So there is always something good on.

Just finnished dinner and am watching Swamp People on the History channel. I usually watch the history channel or science channel. BBC for morning news.

I'm gonna live in a swamp! 🙂
