Satellite
Satellite
service is another method of connecting to the Internet. In some rural
areas Satellite may be your only alternative to a slow dial-up
connection. The “upload” (which typically has a few bits of information)
is usually slower than than the rich data and image download. According
to some sources, satellite is less expensive than ISDN connections.
As computers and television converge into a new medium, the need for
speed--the technical term is bandwidth--will become more acute.
That’s all from the Sandbox, where only the latest and greatest survive!
