My results are less extreme. Under the classic Mac OS, I can sometimes break 1 Mbps on the bandwidth test over my cable modem. All browsers provide similar performance. Under OS X, performance varies from under 600 kbps to about 800 kbps -- and it definitely varies depending on the browser I'm using, with iCab the slowest.
