| Passage 1 The Information Highway is the road that links computer users to a large number of on-line services; the Web,e-mail,and software,to mention just a few.Not long ago,the information Highway was a new road,with not many users.Now,everyone seems to want to take a drive,with over 30 million families connected worldwide.Not surprisingly,this well-traveled highway is starting to look like a well-traveled highway.Traffic jams can cause many serious problems,forcing the system to close down for repair. Naturally,accidents will happen on such a crowed road,and usually victims are some files,gone forever. Then,of course,there's Mr.Cool,with his new broad-band connection,who speeds down the highway faster than most of us can go.But don't trick yourself; he pays for that speeding.
