Today we have attach disks to a file server. We need "drivers" for all devices and all flavors of operating systems. Tomorrow (with Jini) we will plug the disks directly to the network

This will work with
-
hardware: disk dowers, cameras, printers, scanners
-
software services: email gateways, etc.
|

Both hardware and software are services
-
Everything is an object
-
Everything is accessed through an interface

Very general picture: in future digital TV, phone, computer, DVD player can (will) communicate via Jini
