在今年的联网失效和给人们所带来的失望方面最引入注目的事情是,从1996年起它们没有多少变化,尤其是高速远程联网,NC和网管产品。 1997年,正如I996年一样,高速远程联网技术依然是主要的令人失望的领域。调制解调器和DSL(数据用户线)有一天可能会使计算机的远程使用发生革命性的变化,但是它们的实施速度却象冰山移动那样缓慢,这是对早期预测的嘲弄。除了进入选择测试市场的少数享有特权的人之外,看来大多 The most noticeable aspect of this year’s networking failures and disappointments for people is that they have not changed much since 1996, especially high-speed remote networking, NC and network management products. In 1997, as in I996, high-speed long-distance networking technology remained the main disappointing area. Modems and DSLs (data subscriber lines) may one day revolutionize the remote use of computers, but their implementation speeds are as slow as iceberg movements. This is a mockery of early predictions. In addition to entering the few privileged people who choose to test the market, it seems that most
