Not to rain on your parade, but I've borne witness to speeds nearing 12MB/s before.
Mind you, this was at a university with a high speed internet connection (100Mbps) connected to another user from the same place over DC++. =P I've never seen anything faster than that, though I suppose downloading something from myself would be a sufficient test of that.
But yeah, congrats on the speed that I'll never ever get while at home in a billion years.

EDIT: just a question, did you set your up speed limit?[/quote]
That's usenet there's no seeders. And he's not uploading anything.

[quote name='CockroachMan' post='1292383' date='Jul 23 2008, 09:14 PM']I remember the time when I used dial-up and took a screenshot like that cause I got 6k/s on Napster XD[/quote]
When all is at peace on the internets and usenet I can max out about 2.2MB sometimes reaching 4MB. Usually it hovers or 756kbs to 980kbs. This is on stupid comcast home connection.
Anything under 6MBytes/s makes me bored, and anything under 2MBytes/s make me want to die
Guess I'm just a common Swedish person spoiled with my 100Mbit connection that I've had for a few years (before that I had.. only.. 10Mbit). Pretty good for 25 euro a month
I agree with BigOnYa. I look at DOOM: The Dark Ages look stunning like bloody h*ll. That's like Doom 5th games I think. Awesome. I had few friends who are horror gaming fans would love it. I have to talk my friends about new Doom game upcoming. Cheers
