Ok every time you download something to your hardrive from the internet you get a information on how big the file is, how much has been diwnkoaded, and how much still needs to be downloaded. These depending on how big the file is can be measured in a number of units. Here is a table to make it all very simple to understand.

Now mega bytes used to be pretty much the largest measure for anything you will download from the internet. However Giga Byte hard drives are becoming the standard for new computers. However don't expect to down load any Giga Byte sized files for a while. Even full 28.8 speed it wold take about 3.2 days to download a gigabyte.
