apparent collapse of dot.com business....


E-BIZ INTOXICATION SOBERS TO REAL WORLD

"I think what's happened with e-business parallels what's
happened with other transformational technologies.

 First, there's a period of wild enthusiasm -- intoxicating 
optimism that the new technology is going to rewrite the laws
of competition and economics. . . 

Predictably, that fever passes, only to be replaced by
significant disillusionment. . . That passes too, and
the world finally gets down to the important work of taking 
the technology and integrating it into the structure and fabric 
of society and business."

-- Lou Gerstner, IBM chairman and CEO
