Justin is right 10mbps does translate into 10 mega bits per second or 10*1024*1024 or exactly 10.485.760 bits per second which is in essence 1.310.720 _bytes_ per second. 1 MegaByte per second is pretty decent, since some of the information sent is used for parity and other stuff. ... and yes I used a calculator :)
Bye,
Jochen
