It wasn't until this morning, sipping my coffee, that the significance of the last hit me: it's not quite DVD quality yet, but we've achieved true low-latency video on demand. 15 years ago, as a freshman in high school, I put together a paper for one of my classes describing how such a system might work. Holy smokes, we're living in the future!
