Thanks, Ann, for the explanation about the speed of an upload.
I have cable, which is fast for lots of things, but I thought
uploading off a diskette would take a little more time. Color
me "Enlightened."
Hugs,
Marilyn

Hi all,
Marilyn, if you're on Broadband, cable or DSL the process is fast. It may
take about a minute for a normal book on DSL, less with cable. Remember
you're dealing with files that are in kilobytes, not megabytes like sound
files. An average book is between say 100 and 200K this is chicken feed
in the eyes of a server and the Internet which moves at 200 kps (Kilobytes
per second) or more. Check the upload rate you have. If you're on DSL it
may be ten times slower than downloading, but it's still pretty fast.
