    I'll sound retarded for asking this, but what's the difference between a "bit" and a "byte"? I'm relatively good with computers, but not good enough to actually know about the complicated portions of computers itself.

    8 bits = 1 byte
    On a given day or given circumstance, you think you have a limit.
    And you then go for this limit and you touch this limit and you think "Ok, this is the limit".
    As soon as you touch this limit, something happens and you suddenly can go a little bit further.
    With your mind power, your determination, your instinct and the experience as well, you can fly very high.

    My fastest speeds I got in shareaza are 27.70 megaBYTES (MB) with 50 sources.
    Shareaza is a good alternative for rare files that u can barly find in website, but unfortunately it all depends on the ed2k sucking servers that u connect to and your credit shit, due to uploading to the same server everytime. I only connect to the same one fast server everytime that has alot of sources (I tried most of them I came to the conclu. that servers starting with 207.XX.XX.XX are faster than others and have more sources, but NOT all of them of cources, I suggest you try them).
    Most of the downloads are like 1 KB killing me till they finish or stay PENDING.

    Right - 3 MegaBITS. Don&#39;t see many people talking about MegaBITS.
    Actually, it&#39;s not too uncommon to see networking and internet connections speeds in megabits.

    Like a 10/100/1000 mbps LAN card, a 1.5 mbps cablemodem, or 10 mbps fiber line.
