Where de-regulated, price has plummeted, service and bandwidth have increased,Bandwidth to the home is rising at a rate commensurate with Moores Law and the growth of storage medium,Putting it all Together,When taken together, the combined

14、effects of increased computing power, network growth, storage capacity growth, and bandwidth growth provide entire new computing capabilities with each successive generation The idea of a real-time video phone relying on bandwidth, computing power, and storage was once science fiction and is quickly
