If I remember right, Baud is the signalling rate - and is only equal to
bit rate when the 'signals'
See Wikipedia - and weep?
Forget the k/K.
As of 2005, the standards work out as...
All multiples can either be ten or two based (1,000 or 1,024 multiples).
The binary forms are always capitalised K/M/G/P/E/Z/Y followed by a
lower case "i". These are followed by "B" for bytes or "bit" for bits.
Oh my ;-)
Usually I have 750k download speed with ADSL 6000. Tony's server just gave
75k. I do not bother with bits or bytes here 8-).

Sorry Marcel, but from this posting I still do not know whether your
'75kb/s' are kilo-bits or kilo-bytes! ;-
