The DHCP packets appear on my terminal window, one of almost a dozen I have open, sprawling over the remarkably cheap four-and-a-half megapixels of display in front of me, so rapidly I'm only really sure it's changed by comparing the timestamp to my menubar clock. Yet it is somehow fundamentally the same thing as the BOOTP messages scrolling by at stately pace on the Sun3's CRT all those years ago. Exactly the same thing. And at the same time, entirely different.
