Tiivistelmä: | The coolest new place in cyberspace is so cool, it's not even on the Internet. It doesn't have chat rooms or car ads or sexy craphics files or a user-friendly interface or nodes in every major and minor city. What it does have is blazing speed - connections at up to 155 megabits per second, or more than 10,000 times the speed of that 14.4-kilobit modem you just bought for your home computer. It is called vBNS, for very high-speed Blackbone Network Service, and it's run by MCI Communications Corp. for the National Science Foundation (NSF). |
