E-mail communication. Abstract computer artwork of a train riding a beam of light on a starfield, representing e-mail and the information superhighway. The train is moving out of an @" (at) symbol. @ is a symbol used in all electronic mail (e-mail) addresses, and can represent all internet communications.
