....not all of us can use all our upstream bandwidth.....

I'm using a torrent manager called 'burst!', it rules.

I'll send the file to anyone who wants it.....

I would advise folks to use the Official BitTorrent client, found at:

http://bitconjurer.org/BitTorrent/

It does not allow you to throttle your uploads - which keeps everything
equitable. It is also extremely lightweight in that it demands almost
nothing of your CPU and will tootle along in the background without you
even noticing (unless you're trying to go online)

The almost complete lack of an interface, buttons or bells is a little
disconcerting at first - but you grow to love it - KISS!

'Roc content: Spent today sorting out the GTX. New number plates (it's
the little details which make the difference), bled brakes, sealed the
exhaust which was blowing, gave myself a twin rear fog lamp conversion,
changed a few bulbs, swapped in a new wing mirror, vacuum & Jetwash.
All set for 1000 mile round trip to Scotland tomorrow. Looking forward
to getting on the open road with it for the first time.

Onelove
