    The measure of the size of the hole in you computer that has information shoved through from the internet.
    The larger the bandwidth, the more stuff you can get at one time.

      In electronics and signalling terms it is the difference between the highest frequency component in a signal and the lowest frequency component. So called because it is the same as the width when viewed in the frequency domain or as a fourier transform.

      In computing it is the throughput (transmission rate) in bits per second of a connection.

          The difference between the highest and lowest frequencies of a transmission channel (the width of its allocated band of frequencies). The term is often used erroneously to mean {data rate} or capacity - the amount of {data} that is, or can be, sent through a given communications circuit per second.

            The width, in [Hertz], of the pass-band of any equipment that can process information. Most computer data transfer works at base-band (unlike radio transmitters, which usually operate on some higher wave band) so the bandwidth is usually equal to its [baud] rate.

                A measure of how fat a band is. The greater the fatness, the greater the bandwidth.

                          1. [common] Used by hackers (in a generalization of its technical
                            meaning) as the volume of information per unit time that a computer,
                            person, or transmission medium can handle. “Those are amazing
                            graphics, but I missed some of the detail — not enough bandwidth, I
                            guess.” Compare low-bandwidth; see also
                            brainwidth. This generalized usage began to go
                            mainstream after the Internet population explosion of 1993-1994. 2. Attention span. 3. On Usenet, a measure of network capacity
                            that is often wasted by people complaining about how items posted by others
                            are a waste of bandwidth.
