Mor rubbish.

Who says kilobits are obsolete? There are still plenty of dial-up users who have speeds in kilobits per second and satellite services still run at speeds such as 384 kbps. The equipment used there has data buffers and those are measured in kilobits.

Yup, you always did smile

And always wrongly. You always assumed that your opinion carried more weight than the laws of physics.

It wasn't me I asked, but a complete and utter non-techie and who is very much your average "joe public"

In my line of work, I stand out because I DO consider (or at least try to) those less endowed in technical skills and it frustrates me that my fellow techie colleagues don't

That means nothing to the topic at hand. For if you are to engage in a reply that respects the full knowledge of the other participant; in pursuit of enabling others, whilst wilfully obfuscating the situation to maintain your difference to the argument without resolve, you yourself are damaging your own argument - these are universal rules.

No, no, no!

Advertising must be catchy and simple - the very idea of making a person do maths for any advertisement (unless a Google job offering) is absurd. Especially those in the ISP arena, you are barking mad!

Accuracy or ease of comparison with others not being a requirement of course.
