- Just a couple of questions?
-
- 1) why do you find the issue of cost of network management and
- reliability to be unimportant? If ther bulk of the cost
- of a data network is not in the equipment but in the
- operation and maintenance of the equipment, would you
- not regard this as an important consideration in
- technology selection?
-
- 2) what applications do you see in the multi-media
- world of tomorrow? By this I mean do you see
- ubiquitous multi-media to the desk top or
- will this be reserved to special applications
- like the public conference system described
- previously.
