And of course it has to be. What we probably need is a wholesale change from the old platform. I can't describe what it would be, but that seems to me the only way to move away from insecure computing. We have gone through a similar concept in TV broadcasting. Because TVs can or at least will work with the old system and newer HD systems we may eventually be able to drop the old low rez standards. We need something like that with computers, get rid of the old insecure and adopt something new and less vulnerable. Jim ------------------------ Yahoo!
