Then too, it can be foolishly optimistic (I hate the "irrationally exuberant" poop), as in the dot.com craze. Yet, how much did the murder of the telecom industry have to do with the dot.com collapse and subsequent/parallel market implosion? An enormous amount. The dot.com bubble was built on telecoms. The implosion in demand for all this extra fibre that was put in (as well as the wildly overoptimistic expectations for 3G services - telecom companies ploughed vast amounts of money into 3G licenses which were ALL to do with the dot.com bubble) - then the bubble went away leaving telecoms firms with huge amounts of unused bandwidth, empty datacentres, and no demand for 3G mobile services - but they had to keep paying the bills they'd run up in investing in all this kit that there was no demand for. -- Dylan Smith, Castletown, Isle of Man Flying: http://www.dylansmith.net Frontier Elite Universe: http://www.alioth.net "Maintain thine airspeed, lest the ground come up and smite thee" |
