That sounds roughly right, just from my own feel of things. Took me a lot longer than I expected to download that update last weekend myself, over my airport link.
Note that if she uses Safari 1.2, at least if the download is interrupted (for example if someone in the house picks up an extension line), she may resume it because the new Safari features "resumable downloading". If her new iMac doesn't have Safari 1.2 already on it, that would be my FIRST download. :-)
Good luck! --Jim.

I has been a couple years since I have used a dial-up connection at 56Kb.
My sister now has her first computer, a 15" iMac with Panther loaded on it.
The 10.3.2 update is 36.4MB in size.
I calculate that it could take her about 1 hour and 50 minutes to download
that update, if her phone line cooperates reasonably well. Am I in the ball
park on this estimate?
