1) Exactly right.

2) Think of it like this on the speed thing. If you have ONE Internet connection and ONE computer you get 100%. 2 computers down to 50%, 3 computers down to 33%, etc, etc...

BUT, if you are just using the Internet and NOT downloading or emailing HUGE files you prob wont even notice as you wont be using all the bandwidth thats allocated to you.
