Yeah it's pretty awsome, I got the newest SUSE build the other day and it took a few seconds to reach full speed of my 10 mb/s the same when I had my 100 down

About TPB:

What I've found out so far is:

It's said to be hosted somewhere in Malmo, Sweden inside a mountain complex, I'm guessing a sold out military complex.

They seem to be bounching all over europe after looking at a traceroute of their IP

What I've read now (which is really insteresting in a geeky way hehe), is that they have upped the servers a bit from the start in 2003, they have gone from:

1.3 GHz Celeron 256 mb ram (2003)

with tracker (I guess a tracker finds out who downloads what or who has what or something?)

To:

279 GHz of 64-bit Xeons and 204GB RAM

without running a tracker

The search alone is handled by 60 GHz of processing power and 36 GB ram. My geeky brain is doing backflips over this

Nothing compared to the likes of google (my geek brain would probebly die by their stats) and so on but this site should in theory handle very litte data if you go by how torrents work, if I'm correct.
