I'm shocked and appalled! Next thing you know, someone will be saying that customers are actually signing up for high speed Internet service specifically because they want to use it to transfer things. How can we stop this travesty, as quickly as possible? Folks spend all this time whining about the need for the "killer app" to create more demand for the service, then when it finally comes along they whine about how hard it is to support the service with people actually using it. You can't have it both ways. -- Richard A Steenbergen <[email protected]> http://www.e-gerbil.net/ras GPG Key ID: 0xF8B12CBC (7535 7F59 8204 ED1F CC1C 53AF 4C41 5ECA F8B1 2CBC)
