Don't know if it is still popular or not. it is quite standard in industrial environments and still popular (at least in europe) but existant installations slowly get replaced with ethernet based (100baseFX) or industrial ethernet (10Mbit) transceivers. it is not an open standard. i presume that most larger shops try to get rid of it in favor of ethernet/ip based solutions except for very low latency applications which appear to be migrating to firewire based systems. /k --=20 > Should the US government lift the export controls on strong encryption? > Yes, I think so.
