More insidious is the fact that the U.S. deliberately makes the satellite readings fuzzy, so
accuracyis only to severalmetres.Th e raeon
for this is somewhat vague, but essentially the
U.S. dos not want the technology it developed
to be used against it by foreign governments
for targetting guided weapons. The U.S. can
also turn off the GPS sateUite system at any
time and actually did so during thGulf War.

However, at the less professional level, the

prices that vary widely.

theWeb, you have to exercise a healthydoseof
caution. I just wanted to oifer an additional
solution to the list of things to do to protect
yourself
. Instead of paying for Brewall software,
your readers should be made aware that
really great firewall software exists free for
personal and non-progt use from a company
Nokia,
Quaicomm, and Sony,and heexpects
new digital applianceproducts incorporating
Palm technology to be delivered later in 2000.

Also noted
I did look at two other applications as a part of this review.
Avid Cinema ($125) provides a great deal of guidance to
beginning producers. An entire module is devoted to developing a storyboard, which you can use to plan a movie before
you start shooting. The manual is filled with good beginner
information, such as how to connect camcorders to computers.
Cinema looks very attractive onscrmn, but can't trim accurately and other than a good list of transitions, there's not much
you can do effects-wise. The title editor is very basic and there arc
only three audio tracks. Avid is working on a new version, or a
whole new application, that should appear within the next few
months. Considering that this company's professional products
have an excellent reputation, 1t'shope it does a better job for
consumers next time out.
Ulcad's other video editing software Videogtudio (g90) has
little to recommend it. There are actuagy two applications,
Video Wizard and Video Studio. Understanding where on

Mgdd:mailand massaging
While workingforBell in the late '60s andagain
in the early '70s, I can remember trying to
bypasswaiting for the mail cart that came in the
morning
andafternoon.Workingatthespeedof
the mail mrt delivery system could be most vexing. Thus, it came as no surprise that the most
popular service on the computer time-sharing
system was IBM's venerable and caatankerous
email and scheduling system, PROFS.
Despite its eccentricitiis, PROFSeven beat the
telephone becauseonecould not only deliver the
6nished work (usuafiy in some 6les, or posted,
printed output) but alsosupply a quick explanatory message. There was no need to engage in
telephone tag,and there was also a record of
exactly when the work wassent for delivery.
The verexpanding email service hasbeen a
key driverfor the aceptance of PC LANs
(cheaper internal email, plus shared file/program services), and then the Web ( fee external
email connetions to dients, customers, suppliers, etc.). The current technical drivers in
the massaging arena are convergence to
Internet Protocol (IP) and specialized packet
deli
very ofa broad range of media text/data,
audio, video, telephone, voice, and othersover the same wire. Thus it is worthwhile to
pro6le what the state of the art is in MgtM
services with particular emphasis on the throe
m ajor
ve n dors' off erings: Lo t us
Notes/Domino RS, Microsoft Exchange 5.5,
and Novdl Groupwise 5.5.
Table I lists those features and some distinctive offerings from each mail massaging vendor.We could also easily have included software firom Netscape, Sendmail and half a
dozen others, but have focused on the Big
Three for thc sake of simplicity.
If we follow trends in the massaging arena
shown on Table I, three stand out. First, messaging has constantly cast the net wider. Early
services werc proprietary and could not talk to
each other. Now it is almost a requirement that
a mail scrvicc not only supports Internet mail
but talks to a wide range of other massaging
services. In that respect, Novell leads the way
with a universal inbox that accepts faxes, voice
mail, and pager notes, along with traditional
and Internet emaiL The Net has also had a
democratizing effect: Internet email is so cheap
(it's free with browser sofiware and Net access)
that it is also used as the internal massaging
service for many smaU- to medium-sized businesses. The same phenomenon may now be
occurring in groupware and teamwork.
The second trend, led by Lotus, is the
increasing customization and programmability of both the interface and the services offered
in an M&M system. From the outset, Notes has
been adocument database,w ith either usersor
experts adding sorting, searching, reconciling,
and other features in effeob developing
applications around Notes' M&M services.
Microsoft, with its Outlook client, set a high
standard for default services induding contacts, calendaring, and scheduling that the
other vendors have had to fallow. Now lotus is
upping the ante by making Notes an Internet
browser dient through its embedded Domino
server. This means, with the addition of Mobile
Notes, that Notes applications can run on any
device that operates browser, induding person-
