In a network, public computing is made possible by smaller computer in the network. Which means it's all the same thing. So the more people who have *individual* devices contributes to *public computing*. The more individual computing devices that are possible, the more your public computing concept holds true... so we're back where we are. -- Taran Rampersad Presently in: Panama City, Panama [EMAIL PROTECTED] PLEASE DON'T HIT REPLY TO ALL! http://www.knowprose.com http://www.easylum.net http://www.digitaldivide.net/profile/Taran "Criticize by creating." — Michelangelo _______________________________________________ DIGITALDIVIDE mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.edc.org/mailman/listinfo/digitaldivide To unsubscribe, send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word UNSUBSCRIBE in the body of the message.
