My LimeWire downloads are going at rates of 3kbps, 2kbps, and 1kbps. However, the total bandwidth reads 8kbps.

Methinks some programmer isn’t very good at math. Shame.

Way to go, Apple…

Finally got my new computer, the PIV/1.6GHz/256MB/20GB/WinXP monster that allows me to actually run some of the stuff I own (heh heh…).
