No, this is more a rough indicator of how long it might take on a slow
modem. An individual download may take longer or shorter... a lot depends
on the net traffic at that time. It's more an outline than a guarantee.

I usually look at the bytesize myself... the number of kilobytes is a more
objective measure than an estimate of a slow modem. The "number of seconds
at 28.8" is just a rough guide for use at first, that's all.
