>(according to Ray Peck), but it is not Spaceway. It is probably older (and

They market it as DirecPC (note: no T). Check www.direcpc.com.
Available now at CompUSA. $650 for the dish, $10/month, $0.8/$0.6 per
megabyte during business/nonbusiness hours, "bulk packs" of $25 per 64
megs. 20 inch dish.
I might go for it, but so far they haven't responded to my mail asking
if I can use it with multiple IP addresses, routing them with NT
Server. At the moment, they only support Win95 on PCs.
No announced plans about Mac versions, no schedule for versions with
routing.
