The trade-off with this reduction in size is a decrease in bandwidth to slightly less than 25 percent."

A mouse just uses them up more quickly than an elephant."
Poster Comment: Just links to various implementations of Fractal geometry. Great thanks to the genius of Benoit B. Mandelbrot who thought "out of the box," evaded Nazi persecution, had the good fortune to emigrate to the USA and be hired by IBM.

Liberty is not a means to a higher political end. It is itself the highest political end. The Mother (almost) of All Fractals: The Mandelbrot Set
Liberty is not a means to a higher political end. It is itself the highest political end. Very cool. More research pending on my part. Being a ham radio operator I'm intrigued.
