Az think of it this way. To run HL it takes anywhere from 3-5 k/s download/upload. With that in mind you take your average gaming time lets just say 10 hours a month. thats 4k/s times 60 sec in a min times 60 min in a hour times 10 because of the 10 hours that equals.... 1.4 GB for playing 10 hours of HL. This doesnt include map downloads and extra crap put on servers. (if my math is wack sorry its late and i have had 4 hours of sleep.) This would put you over the limit fast.

I think you did your math wrong somewhere, multiplied by 10 one too many times maybe, but it is more like 140MB for 10 hours.

yeah. about 200megs max for 10 hours of playing. dont forget the porn downloads and other web browsing you will be doing. i checked my transfer for the month, and im at 19.3 gigs transfer -- mostly streaming theville radio and downloading alot of mp3s though
