Alright, so here are the different options from the local company. I have 3 Computers. 2 Macbook Pro's, and an HP desktop

Essentially one MBP gets used fully and the HP and the other MBP are used as much as a whole computer would be (both mine).

So, the computers would be used for mainly school work, a few song downloads every month (let's say 10) and some light porn browsing ;D, just kidding .

So could i get away with the slowest and cheapest? I assume it won't really be that slow (It's cable internet BTW). And do I need to worry about going over my "Data allotment"

I'm not really familiar with KB, MB and GB so any help or advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks for the advice in advance, Adrian

Yes, you can get away with the 1.5Mb/s just fine. It won't set any records, but you're not going to notice it on small files anyway. And of course, once you've got the contract, you can easily up the bandwidth if you find it too slow.
