    on my 30mbps connection(according to speedtest.net) It would take me about 3-5 minutes to download that size of file. That is under the assumption that I can download it at that speed. Some websites don't allocate that much bandwidth and may limit it. Relative to today's HDD size that isn't really a lot. Now if you have a Pentium 2 with a Seagate 7.6GB HDD with a dial up connection then yes that is a crapload. Otherwise nah it ain't that much at all. A few of my games are over 2 GIGs of info. 808 is a tad over 3/4 of a gig. NOT the 1/8th that someone else suggested . To be exact it is 0.7890625 gigabyte

    It's a little over one CD (which is typically 650 to 700 MB). If you're on a low-end DSL connection, figure about 20 mins to download. A high-end DSL connection, a few minutes. A dial-up (56k modem) connection ... you'll be as gray as I am before it's done.

    Yes, that's getting there to 1GB, which is 1024MB. Make sure you have enough room! If you're not using a P2P connection this could take at least a couple hours to download on a fast connection.

    It depends, how fast is your internet connection?

    808 MB is 1/8 of 1GB , to put it into context, I have 300Gb of space on my hard drive, and they go up to 1000GB or 1TB.

    So it is not too much. Windows alone takes up 10GB of space.
