Craig came down very hard on Bob Metcalfe and I was hoping that over the past few days someone would step in and explain that Bob is far from being a clueless journalist. I believe Craig is just showing how young he is. Bob Metcalfe along with David Boggs published in ACM (July 1976) an article entitled "Ethernet - Distributed Packet Switching for Local Computer Networks". This paper was the groundwork for Ethernet - without which we would still be using X.25 and possibly no LANs. Having Bob (as well as a few other heavyweights) on this list, we can only come to a better understanding of the routing, addressing and portability problems of the Internet that we are all hitting. Craig, Bob has probably forgotten more than you and I will ever know.
