Stijn,


T1 is basically a 1.5 Mb/sec. connection. T3 is a 45 Mb/sec. connection.

There

are all sorts of 'fractional' ones in between that will give you a lower

speed

connection for a lower price. These are basically for businesses (and

priced

accordingly) since a whole company can all share one T1 or T3. Many huge

internet/tech conventions with all their connected display booths, cafes

and

such are run through just a few T3s.


"Box" usually just refers to a desktop computer since it's basically a

box

(i.e.: "a Wintel box with 128MB RAM"). Even the latest and greatest G4

"cube"

is a "box"...though a very cool one!


HTH,

Randy
