WHAT:   ISDN, The Technology, Its Costs and Uses

  After years of wallowing around in the backwater of promissing network
  (in its broadest sense) technologies, ISDN is finally becoming an installed
  reality.  Tonight's speaker will provide us with a view of what ISDN means
  in the Bay Area.  What does the technology really do, how much does it cost,
  and what are the potential uses that are of interest to us. The speaker's
  bullets:

      Pacific Bell ISDN tariff offerings and deployment 
  	    for Basic Rate and Primary Rate ISDN

      ISDN technology overview

      Pacific Bell ISDN network overview

      ISDN Access to the Internet and customer premises 
  	    equipment overview

      Commercial ISDN application discussion
  	on demand networking, large files - graphics, 
  	advertising agency, graphic designers, groupware

      Audience participation is welcome

  We also hope to have representatives from one or more Bay Area Internet
  service providers present to augment the discussion of current ISDN
  availability and use.
