Did you say 70 MB/s? Megabytes? Are you sure?

Read carefully everyone! It was 70 Mbit/s and I always spell it out for exactly this reason, not to pick on you JD1961. Perhaps you know this already, but for anyone who does not: there is a ratio of 8:1 between the two, so just under 10 MBytes/s if you prefer to see it that way. And yes that number is correct, I always run a program called Bandwidth Monitor at continuously displays the bandwidth in and out. Although, now the site is running at 60 MBit/s
I am always wondering if people get the too mixed up. I understand that many people do not know the relation between a bit and a byte. The simple way to put is that 1 byte equals 8 bits for almost any application. So the new videos people are talking about being shot in 8 MBit video is equal to 1 MByte/s
If someone tells you 70 MBytes/s they are more than likely stupid! My fastest hard drive can sustain writing 77 MByte/s using SATA 2. So a website outputting that much to one user would be insane!
I truly believe that people should not abbreviate Mbps and MBs, because it gets mixed up alot. It should be spelled out to avoid the mess.

I didn't read carefully, I assumed you were using the megabyte standard.

Understandable, it is pretty easy to mix them up if you read through quickly. Besides, I was looking for an excuse to let that out because I know there are people who do not know the difference but do not want to be the person to ask. You know what they say about assumptions though!! :)
I certainly wish I could get those kind of speeds. It would make porn browsing much easier, but I dont think webmasters would approve of people being able to download their content in a matter of minutes, I have made enough of them mad the way it is!
The problem with standards is that not everyone uses the same standards, liters and gallons for example. So I find it best just to not be lazy and type the whole thing out. Just like "lol" means laugh out load to many people, but I might say lol thinking lesbians on lust. Okay, maybe that is stretching it, but you get the point.
