A short release on what doesn't seem to be a new AMD product: AGNES, an acronym for Aggregated Network Services, described as a 'telemedicine device aggregation appliance', is a web and Windows based program that provides imaging, sound and data transmission on bandwidth as low as 64 kbs (this editor [Donna] had to look it up--DSL speed). It seems to be a lower-cost alternative to traditional video conferencing which requires a much higher bandwidth and is the basis for most telemedicine. But one would have appreciated a newsier, meatier release. What is AGNES (AMD)? [Read first comment on clarifying what AGNES is, which should have been 1) part of the release and 2) a great idea for a demo--Donna}
