I don't know how i used to use 38 Kbs dial-up compared to 1Mbps soon when BT upgrade the phoneline to be upgraded to 8Mb. Broadband is also safer i believe

 

[Tom]

Dialup is safer from a personal security point of view, really because it is too slow for a hacker to make contact with you as all the viruses nowadays use big files.

Trouble is morons will get fatpipe then leave it open :roll:.

5MB, oh no sorry you didn't ask me. :mrgreen:

I think you mean 5mb (mega bits/second)

Mb = mega bit
MB = mega byte

 

[Tom]

Or 5MBit...

 

[bunnahabhain]

Or 10 Mega Nibble's.

 

[Julian G]

i've still got Dial-Up :P

 

[traveller1030]

24Mbit down/1.5Mbit up for me in January (hopefully) - rock n' roll!

 

[Tom B]

AFAIK a nybble is any division of a byte?

Edit: Wikipedia seems to call it half a byte but I thought it coud be used for any division?

 

[traveller1030]

It's a knibble, and I support the historical stance that it is shorthand for four bits.
