No no no....
You missed the point...
The real purpose is to check another thing:
How fast and stable is your line.
Take Hetz, as an example.
His ISP loses money, because now everybody has ADSL, and the ISPs are
on their knees.
So the smart ISP, lowered the bandwidth.
Now Hetz wonders: "Is there anything wrong?"
Of course, he posts a message to linux-il.
But the happy end is not late to come:
Now there is a great opportunity to check the quality of the line.
This is the real purpose of multi-giga ISO files on the 'Net.
