different from the Internet's current best effort service. This
service is not meant to replace best effort but primarily to meet an
emerging demand for a commercial service that can share the network
with best effort traffic. This is desirable economically, since the
same network can be used for both kinds of traffic. It is expected
that Premium traffic would be allocated a small percentage of the
total network capacity, but that it would be priced much higher.</pre></pre>So who are you kidding, with this statement?<br><br><span><br><span name="x"></span><div><div><div>Franck Martin<br><a href="http://www.avonsys.com/" target="_blank">http://www.avonsys.com/</a><br>
