There is a "perception" of lack of bandwidth. MAE EAST is running at %30 
capacity of a 100Mb switched FDDI. Figure there are about 30 providers 
each with 45Mb pipe - a bandwidth shortage does not add-up - There are 
many other metrics that effect performance besides bandwidth. How does 
Internet II solve the other sources of performance problems?
