Abstract :
It is argued that over the next 15 years, there should be a quantum increase in the amount of computing power delivered to the user. This paper will be derived from the network to which these devices are connected. While all of this will be of interest to the technologist, there is no focus being given to the application of the power of the local computer network (LCN) to the needs of the users. The LCN is then examined from the viewpoint of what is necessary if the LCN in particular, and computing in general, is to achieve its full capability as a tool for users
