THE VIEW FROM FEZ: Huge upsurge in internet in Morocco

The number of internet users now stands at 4 millions and is expected to jump to 10 million within three years.

With the introduction of DSL, the View from Fez predicts an explosion in Internet usage in Morocco. My immediate question is how access will be distributed, and whether it will reach the more rural areas of the country. (When I lived in Outat El Haj, the only telephone to which I had access was at the Post Office, and that had to be cranked to get the attention of an operator in the city.)
