Nope :-)

ADSL is 256Kbits which is 32K/sec and that is in theory. So let's say
you get 25K/sec in practice.

25k/sec is 1,500k/min which is 90,000k/hour.

90,000k/hour is roughly 87.8MB/hour.

As 1.5Gb is 1,536MB it would take roughly 17 and a half hours to upload.
In practice, this number will be closer to 20.

Thus ends the lesson in Mathematics. If I have the numbers wrong then
mock away.
