Not really. BT breaks up all files no matter how big into small
pieces and is uploading/downloading them all at the same time. But
it's not uncommon to wait a couple of days for a download that big.
I'm in no hurry :)

Cool thanks for the heads up! Hadn't realized these were starting to
come from big vendors like APC.

They supposedly are throttling which is why people change their ports to
from what I read.
Been using 52525 as per some writeup about Azuerus but have not
confirmed it's better or maybe too commonly used so throttled also.
Never see a d/l over 200KB/sec here.

I average about 1.2-1.6MB (that's bytes, not bits) on a well seeded torrent.
Hopefully as Verizon rolls out FIOS in your areas the competition will bring
prices down.

Thought that wasn't possible (seeing as MCE 2005 uses VMR 9).
Wouldn't the minimum be a GeForce FX or 9x00 (x=5,6,7,8)?
It's a perfectly fine video card with onboard MPEG-2
Because the GF4 is a DirectX 8 part, and I guess MCE requires the fully
programmable pixel pipelines DX9 provides.
