I would expect PPP access to have different system resource impacts. In general, running the user interface on a user's CPU should take much less CPU and memory, but will require more I/O bandwidth. The fee structure should reflect CCN's costs, but since different types of users have different access patterns, some measurements might be useful to measure actual resource usage. IP's using netscape to help maintain their own pages on CCN is much different from users surfing the web. In my experience, even with 56k, users will likely be disappointed. Some users will, however, appreciate the ability to use a different news reader. When CCN offers PPP accounts, it is important to explain what users can expect. -- George White <aa056@chebucto.ns.ca> Halifax, Nova Scotia
