- That depends on what your "connect" speed is. If you connect at
- 28,800 then you should see around 3400cps on the graphics and at least
- 6000cps on the text. I assume by "surfin", you mean on the Web with
- Netscape. Be aware that the speeds that Netscape gives you can be
- *very* innacurate with small files and on pages with many small
- graphics. Transfer speeds also depend on the load at your provider as
- well as the server you are accessing.
