Vista File Transfers

[Penth]

I'm transferring a 4.35GB file over my network. It's only moving at 12MB/sec and vista says it's going to be 40 seconds until it's done. It really takes 6 minutes. Why is this so difficult for Vista to figure out? Earlier I moved like 100GB and it said it was going to take 5 minutes for the first half and then 10 minutes for most of the rest.

It's not just Vista. XP does this to me all the time.

No idea, but it's certainly not a Vista issue only, as XP never had very accurate calculations either.

I do very much like that Vista tells you the speed of the transfer though.

Gotta say, gigabit pwnz0rs
