The Law of “Networkdynamics”
Nothing in networking comes for free, which is a fact many people seem to forget. Any time a network technology offers “guaranteed reliability” and other similar properties, you should ask what it is going to cost you, because it is going to cost you. It may cost you in terms of money, in terms of lower throughput (bandwidth), or in terms of higher delay, but one way or another it is going to cost you something. Nothing comes for free.

'678': The 666 of DSL Users. Maybe you've just upgraded to Windows XP, and maybe you've just subscribed to a DSL service. And maybe everything seems to be working right, until you get repeated dialog boxes indicating a '678' error. Maybe you're ready to scream. By Michelle Delio. [Wired News]
