After all, GE invented the light bulb. If not for that we would have had no vacuum tubes, thus no transistors, thus no ICs, thus no IMPs, thus no Internet. Or maybe its because GE Information Systems ran the largest internet in the world until the Internet surpassed it in size a couple of years ago. Or maybe they don't. Why don't you ask them why they need it. -- Michael Dillon - Internet & ISP Consulting http://www.memra.com - E-mail: [email protected]
