You're probably right about that. I see peaks as high as 15-18 mbps, but I don't know what I really get. I do know that just recently I have begun seeing downloads at sustained speeds above 1 mbps for the first time ever. I had a sustained transfer over 2 mbps from Microsoft the other day...
I feel exactly the same way. I find darkness comforting, and I feel like I move around very well in the dark. I often keep just a low light in my office at night, and I absolutely _hate_ fluorescents.
