Describe your expectations for the future of networks, network
development, and management decision systems by writing at least one
paragraph (at least 5-7 sentences each) for each major type of network
system and development.

Please be as imaginative as you can. Use whatever resources you care
to use, such as "Popular Science" or "Home Office Automation" or other
periodicals or web research.

As this is a "Describe your expectations" question, i think i'll take
the chance to describe mine even if they seem funny.

By the year 2020:
Caseless internet - no more operating systems will be needed. Just an
access point and some handheld device. The network will be almost
everywhere you can be yourself.

By the year 2050 i think: 
A microchip will be implanted in embryos with a 100Gbps/Sec port to
the sillicon valley directly.

<-- listening, sounds an interesting question..
