The reason we have this industry alive is investment bankers. Had we not had
it, there would not have been abundance of fiber, abundance of competition
and easy accessibility of IP. Like it or not, without these games we would
have still though of a T1 as of a huge pipe.

True, and without further investment (by someone) we may think of an OC-192
as a huge pipe in 10 years. [work with me here. I am trying to make the

improved on for the forseeable future unless someone does investment].
