I thought the following quotes sort of summarized everything....

	"ISPs will have direct connection to Network Solutions' Domain Registration
	Service, known as the InterNIC, that will provide for the ISP's exclusive
	registration in .com, .org and .net domains."

"known as the InterNIC"....?

	"As the  pioneering registrar for .com, .net, .org, .edu and .gov,
	Network Solutions has registered more than one million
	domain names, and manages the allocation of all Internet
	Protocol addresses in the Americas."

"all Internet Protocol addresses"...?

Hmmm....I have to check our records, I do not think they paid for
"all" of the IPv4 space yet...;-)
