lol if you look on the right of the screen yo ushoudl see 3 bars, on says you, one says uk, one says t1, or osmethign liek that.

the top bar si your speed though.

yours will only be 1 meg though.

and it is relative too, because up to 50 peopel maybe more if your isp is stingy can share your connection effecitively, called a contention ratio, so you will find its slower during peak hourse.

No only 3 of us - me, Laura and Dan - the laptop is only used as a spare Don't think any of us download anything though but Dan does like playing his Guild Wars online game though
