Thanks - but I can't claim to have that much vision. Sometimes, people have to be hit over the head before they understand what it was that just hit them. In my case, I've seen the technology in use....and from what I have seen, it's pretty easy to imagine what's coming next. I've been involved with the design and implementation of internet software for about 13 years. The company at which I work, has had electronic mail running for around 20 years. Yet, when WWW first hit, most of us thought it was little more than a toy. And the reason that's the case, is because we had been concentrating on business solutions - issues concerning remote file access. I can see this train coming, though. And I think that like the WWW, the biggest appeal will be from the entertainment angle. Imagine playing chess with somebody in Japan on your way in to work. Just the start of what's coming.
