EBS AHEAD OF THE REST WITH PPCS
The Enron Intelligent Network includes a first-of-its-kind Pooling Point 
Network (PPN)  that includes 25 pooling points in the United States, Europe 
and Asia.  At least 10 more are scheduled to be completed in 2001. This 
unique pooling point infrastructure provides an interconnection of switching 
platforms that enable the trading and monitoring of bandwidth, storage, and 
other commodities. The Pooling Point Control System (PPCS) is EBS, 
proprietary software system that controls our pooling point infrastructure 
and helps to ensure the success of our bandwidth trading platform.  Click

GOING QUACKERS IN LONDON
On Tuesday, February 27, Enron House, London was awash with rubber ducks, as 
the star of the marketing campaign launching bandwidth trading in Europe swam 
into action.  With the headline, "Relax ... Real-time bandwidth trading has 
surfaced," the "rubber duck" campaign is encouraging European buyers and 
sellers of bandwidth to transact using the EnronOnline platform. 

"The last three months have marked a turning point in the development of the 
European bandwidth market," said Marcello Romano, vice president, Bandwidth 
Trading. "Participants are waking up to the value of firm service level 
agreements and the flexibility offered through bandwidth trading and risk 
management solutions," he added .

EBS trader, Betsy Bassis highlights the interest the campaign is generating. 
"Customers are calling up and squeaking their ducks at me-they love it!"

magazine at the end of April.

can submit questions to the Office of the Chairman.  



IN A GALAXY FAR, FAR AWAY
Enron is the presenting sponsor of Star Wars: The Magic of Myth, at the 
Museum of Fine Arts, Houston (MFAH).  The exhibit runs from March 11, through 
June 24, 2001 and showcases the images and myths that inspired the making of 
the Star Wars Trilogy.  The exhibit offers a glimpse into the film making 
process by displaying original story boards with production notes, full-sized 
figures of androids C-3PO and R2-D2, and featured props including an 11-foot 
model of the sinister Imperial Star Destroyer.  

Enron employees are entitled to two free vouchers to the exhibit.  Click here 
to order your voucher.  You will be asked for your company and RC number, but 
you will not be charged for the tickets.  The museum will also host two 
family days on Sunday, April 1 and Saturday, May 12.  Family days will 
include activities such as mask making, spaceship building and other creative 
projects for kids.
