WWW7 Virtual Edition - 4:00 pm Wednesday 15th April
1998
Over the past three days a dedicated team of
volunteers have been hard at work putting together
what will be the largest Internet Cafe in
the world.
Over 10 kilometers (!) of cable has been laid, over
1000 connections wired, 200 plus computers configured
and a large Sun microsystems server configured.
At the Cafe there are 100 dedicated Sun Microsystems
workstations provided email and web access to users.
In addition, ethernet and PPP based connections are
also
available for delegates with their own laptops
With all the work finally completed the Sun Microsystems
Internet Cafe was finally brought online to full
capacity
this afternoon.
