High Performance Networking, Copyright 1997 I just purchased a book titled "High Performance Networking" and I went to the Chapter on ATM. I wanted to share a few quotes from the summary in that chapter. "ATM technology will no doubt be as commonplace as the telephone in a few years, but for now, it still remains the technophiles network of choice and the manager's last choice when considering cost. ATM will progress a lot further than ISDN because it is being handled and groomed much beter than ISDN ever was. The ATM forum is seeing to that." "As new organizations begin to create their own LANs in different locations, they will base their topology of their LANs on ATM technology." "ATM will no doubt be the LAN and WAN technology of the future." "As the line between what constitues a LAN or a WAN becomes blurred, it is ATM that will bridge the gap and provide network managers with a one-technology solution to all of their network traffic."
