Intel Announces New Net Technology

HILLSBORO, Ore. (AP) - Intel today announced a way for Internet surfers to download images twice as fast over regular phone lines without any special equipment or software - but it will add about $5 to monthly access fees. The technology called Quick Web is installed on the computers called servers that Internet services use to store and relay data. The combination of Intel hardware and special software compresses all the graphic images that are piped through the server, boosting access speed.

Note the release said "graphics images". Just when you thought it was safe out there...
