More than that, I feel that any cities/states talking about new deal with Microsoft will automaticly be suspect of corruption or at least getting so low price that it might become not profitable for Microsoft.
NAT is pefect to extend the network of one single entity, but is a very limited solution to extend the network to several entity.
If you have only one public adresse you have a single port for each services. Despite the fact that most services can extended by virtual one this is not the case for all of them (think SSH, or IPSec for example) and this require a high degre of coordination between the entity.
So IPv6 could be the cheapest way to solve the problem. And this could provids a good boost to the network market...
E1 is 30 B channels at 64kbits/s + 1 D channel at 64kbits/s for signalisation plus 1 synchronisation and misc operator stuff at 64kbits/s. So E1 is 32*64k=2048Mbits/s.
Some operators have services for 10, 12, 15, 20 or 24 channels depending of the offert but this is simply a limit of concurrent B channels open in a 30 B channles capacity E1 line.
SCO say: "In other words, the GPL itself covers situations where code is improperly or accidentally contributed to the GPL without proper authorization (sic) of the true copyright holder."
So IBM are liable because SCO accidentally put some code into Linux? How there can present to the court a causal fault from IBM? IBM are not here to verify that SCO don't put there preciouse code into Linux.
Cash card alredy exists in Switzerland

This is a service from any major bank you can find in Switzerland since maybe 4 years or so. This is just a added function in the bank card and a "cash" logo on it. You can put a maximum of CHF300 (about $200) with any ATM machine or get it back into your account.
Any shop can buy a small blue device to make the transfert. As a customer you simply check to amount, put the card on the device and press the "ok" key. This require only a few seconds.
The use of this "cash" function is segmented. You can find many parking automate with it, and most of public transport ticket automats support it. I think this is right now the best way to take a ticket because it's fast. You don't have to search the monney and put one to one into the automate. Escpecially some of them require the exacte amount of real monney.
All transactions are traced. If you lost the card, the remain amount is credited back to your accout the next month and the old card go into the black list of card tranfered into every transaction devices. It is not safer than real monney, but if you lost the card, you don't lost the monney. I find this feature great!
