That moment when...

That moment when you realize how long you will have to wait for a 60 gigabyte Steam game on a 1.5 Mbps internet connection.

pfff try that with only 350kb down and then tell me how hard it is.

Since I'm getting between 60kbs and 170kbs according to Steam,I'll say it's pretty hard.

I hope that speeds up, because that works out to almost two months worth of 24/7 downloading.

60.2*1024*1024/170/60/60/24 = a minimum of 4 days depending on network congestion. It's still going to take a long time running . I miss the days when I had 10Mbs internet. Those are long gone.

Oh boy, do I know that feeling, having grown up in the country where satellite TV was sketchy at the best of times. Then I moved to college. Ooooooohh will I have a hard time ever adjusting to anything other than the powerhouse they have here.

Well I once spent a week downloading Dota 2...

*8 (kbps is bits, 8 bits to a byte) for 32 days at the top end. More like 50 if you're in the middle of the range you posted.

Nope. Steam measures their download in bytes, not bits.
