RE: Punctuated Equilibrium - PC revolution II How to survive ?

The recruits to a tough training program are traditionally told
to "Look to the right, look to the left, one of you won't be here
next year." Sixty five million years ago, at the annual meeting
of the Dinosaurs /IBM/MS/PC Productions Inc. they heard a talk by
the current management guru about becoming small, fast and furry.
They were told, their survival depended on their ability to adapt
to the rapid changes in their global environment. The huge
Dinosaurs looked at each other and wondered how they were going
to change from large, cold blooded reptiles to mammals. The
motivational speaker suggested "visualization". They should relax
and imagine "in their minds" eye that they were small, fast and
furry. If they had a "positive" attitude nothing was impossible.
It didn't work.

Almost all species that ever existed are extinct.

Human, as all creatures large and small ( except maybe insects )
are not biologically designed for rapid change. What happens is
mass extinctions. The space ( niches ) made by short periods of
extinctions are then slowly filled ( somewhat at random ) by the
survivors. Species survive by geographic dispersion and innate
variety. 

How to survive the mass extinction that NC's will cause among PC
's or how to become very small, very fast and very furry.

The high ground is an expanded vision of the ISP ( Internet
Service Provider ) and this will happen a order of magnitude
faster than most people think.

RE: EPCOT II: Electronic Prototype Community On-line Technology

MS/GE/NBC, ATT, MCI/BT, Oracle/Netscape/Sun - ( and others )
evolve and create new networks of low orbit satellites, earth
stations, transponders, cells, wires, cables, something like the
NSA/DOD and Navy global communications systems. For big
organizations the systems are almost in place, for middle size
companies they are serviced from "EPCOT II Club Houses ", and
individual consumers on a ad hoc basis using AS phone modems,
cable, dishes, microwaves and what ever sort of works. The earth
stations are all purpose servers using object management multi-
channel programs to provide complete on-line services.  (IIOP)

So you can do a lot of things from almost anywhere. EPCOT II is a
set of franchise EPCOT II clubs offering work station cubicles to
office suites with T3 satellite up links. Within their zone they
are a quality Internet Service Provider ( ISP ) for the big
organization and individual users. People can work on the
road or at home, so they can live in some very nice places. The
current market targets are places where there is already a high
density of high tech users. The idea is "synergy" shared
resources rather than stand alone systems. The idea is "plug and
play" turn-key utilities rather than complex on-site equipment
and operations. Larry ( Oracle ) has it about right but is a
little possessive, Marc (Netscape) understands the technology and
Bill (MS) who is very possessive will get on board by the end of
the year. 

Where do you want to be, alone on the California coast, in a
planned community in Costa Rica, The Swiss or Colorado Mountains,
New Zealand or Australia, the French Riviera, a Greek Village;
the EPCOT work and pay master will help you do your work, using
temporary synergy groups, video conferences, high quality
image processing, what ever, where ever. 

EPCOT II global work groups can produce content, hardware,
software, server management, education and training, video, web
pages, news, applications what ever. It's a company made of off
site locations, with a temporary work group and employment
agency, it's a server of home and remote work locations, it's a
hotel, it's a cafe, it's a node and ISP, it's a planned physical
place and network of hard wired connections between international
high-tech communities of transponders, cables and phones.  It is
the Electric Prototype Community on-line Technology of today and
tomorrow, the global village, the world according to Charles
Handy.

Wireless connections:  businesses and schools that have
     been trying out a system that beams data from the Internet to their
     computers using high- frequency radio waves. The wireless
     technology allows users to travel in cyberspace at about 10 million
     bits per second, nearly seven times faster than today's high-speed
     data lines and almost 350 to 700 times faster than the average
     modem.

     "The speed is just blinding," said Stephen Coran, a partner at the
     firm who uses the Internet to search legal databases.

     The radio wave pilot project, which has been operating since early
     summer, is run by CAI Wireless Systems Inc. in Albany, N.Y., and
     Hybrid Networks Inc. in Cupertino, Calif. Hybrid plans to offer
     commercial service in the area by the middle of next year, said
     Chuck Zumbaugh, a Hybrid consultant working on the project.

Natura non facit saltum; ( Nature does not take leaps but it
does?)
http://metro.turnpike.net/~pflaump/winhttpd/htdocs/doc1a.htm
Evolution, competition, survival of the fittest is a fact but
Darwin's theory of evolution does not explain the " Origins of
the Species" or the "Decent of man". The physical fossil record
does not support, and never has, the idea of slow steady
"progress" from simple to complex, in small steps from ammonites
to people. "Time Frames" by Niles Eldredge explains how science
adjusted to the reasonable social expectations of the machine age
by imposing on the data preconceived notions of progress and
order. Darwin's type of slow evolution does happen but so does
rather sudden extinctions and discontinuous bursts of creative
activity.
