Seaplane down off Miami Beach....

I've run the tests and also have AnalogX's NetsStatLive
program. Speed varies, depending on the server I'm
downloading from and the time of day. I consistently see
over 300 KByte/sec on most servers and on a good server,
I've seen about 575 KByte/sec (the meter on FreshDownload).
Just plain timing a 7 MB download of a video, is fast.
