Time to *stop* using megabits or kilobits per second as a unit of connection speed and start using mebibytes or kibibytes. I want to know in layperson's terms how long it is going to take to transfer data. Megabits and kilobits are most helpful for misleading ads at this point. Which greedy for-profit business wouldn't be delighted to find a way to inflate their numbers by a factor of 8.192 (or 8.388608 in the case of megabits) while still being technically correct?
