I just read this piece from August 1996 and it is pretty badly out of 
date.  Many of the principles are still correct, but....
1. The links to Internic are all dead, though Internic did provide links to 
the new URLs.
2. The price of a domain name is wrong, as it went down.
3. The idea of an ISP charging a service fee for registering your domain 
name is obsolete (at least for any ISP that wants much business)
4. The question about getting your own ip number (other than through your 
ISP) isn't answered.

cheers
