ctrlsteef, can you give us info when a torrent is out? I´m to lazy to check. I forgot about it and shutdown my computer so I have to re-download so i´ll go with the torrent as well. Good thing so you still can mess around with your comp and restart and still resume a download. Frustrating to wait for a restart.

Bad thing is it has almost no peers. :(

Edit: it goes at an average speed of 60kbps now. Azureus show an ETA of 7 hours so tonight i probably have it ready.

I got it too, it took about 3 hours. I have a 24/1 hookup, ADSL2+. But I wasn´t in a hurry so it was ok.

:(

Here ADSL 2/1 and 8/1 is very normal. Almost everyone with ADSL can upgrade to 24/1 but they haven´t done it since you can´t download everything in that speed beacue it depends of the source upload. I got 24/1 just because I could :D. Rumours say our cable company will upgrade our real estate and every apartment will have 100/50. That would be really nice. But that cable companies internet connections today is really bad so I don´t have any high hopes about it.

EDIT: messed up and did two posts.

Well, there is one bright light on the horizon in the form of a 6mbit down line.
Soon i'm gonna upgrade. :P
Still not 24 mbit but it's atleast twice as fast as the speed i have now. :D

Yes that would be super. I´m not talking about warez, I would get it becasue I could host more stuff myself rather than have to ask friends/companies to host my servers, i e web and mail.
