    here this is to clear all computer stupidity... evrything is based off of powers of 2... 2 4 8 16 32 64 128 256 512 1024 and so on...

    there are 8 bits in one byte...

    one kilobit is 1024 bits or 128bytes
    one megabit is 1024 kilobits or 128kilobytes...
    etc... things that are measured in bits include internet connection speed, 56.6k is in bits, that means it is SLOW

    one kilobyte is 1024 bytes
    one megabyte is 1024 kilobytes
    one gigbyte is 1024megabytes
    one terrabyte is 1024gigabytes
    etc...

    Thats sums it people if you guys dont understand about internet speeds below will help :D

    56KBits = 5.6Kb
    128KBits = 12.8KB
    150KBits = 15.0KB
    300KBits = 30.0KB
    500KBits = 50.0KB
    1000KBits ie 1MBit = 100.0KB
    2000KBits ie 2MBit = 200.0KB

    etc............. all figures measured in seconds :D

    I guess you got the idea now :D Figures cannot be exactly correct as there can be some fluctuations (ie change for those hu doesnt know what that means ;) )
