Do you mean 73kbits/sec or 73kBytes/sec? On my 8Mb/s connection I downloaded the windows version (188Mb) in 4 minutes at 800kBytes/sec. On that basis at 73kbits/sec it would take 400 minutes, or at 73kBytes/sec 40 minutes. If you started yesterday you should have finished by now! Dialup speeds are around 36kbits/sec or 3.7kBytes/sec, rather slower.
