    <pre> Hi List, You're awfully quiet!!! Is everyone recovering from the seasonal adjustment on the NASDAQ ( cough, didn't it drop 40% since April, but it has just gone up 8%.. whoa).

    Has anyone boned up on the latest megafile digital transport , a la drainpipe technology, wavelet compression????? Maybe not.

    Re: Qantum 'puters. I also realise they're still a future shock scenario. My limited understanding is that they're teaching atoms to "work", to count not just to 0 and 1 , but more, so that's a heck of a lot of info/ power in a computer chip. I just thought then the digital info would be atom sized too, in my limited understanding of the topic. Jennifer
