2.7 yesterday about this same time, right now only 1.6 using the same browser. Of course this varies a lot from test to test depending on internet traffic, your ISP and all of that.<br><br>EDIT: Now just a few minutes later I get 2.5 with Mozilla, 3.0 with OW and 3.3 with Chimera. Pretty damned fast no matter how you slice it. <br><br><br><br><P ID="edit"><FONT SIZE=-1><EM>Edited by mikeb_X on 11/15/02 07:48 AM (server time).</EM></FONT></P>
