Greetings,
I have been told that this address can answer the following question.
1A) GENERAL: Will application files from Microsoft Office or Digitial
Interleaf/Cadre Teamwork be compatible with Internet HTML/VTML? If not
compatible, then what type of HTML/VTML complexity planned product
improvements timeline exists?
1B) SPECIFIC: The limitations in Internet server size, Rockwell (makes 80%
of market) modem speed, and line access costs constrains current HTML/VTML
standards. If this speculation is reasonable, then only a capitalizatiion
writeoff by the phone companies and modem/server technology improvements
can create an economical implementation for more complex HTML/VTML
specification upgrades which incorporate more "hardrive applications"
features (such as Interleaf and/or Microsoft Office and/or DOOM graphics).
