Gary,in the real world there is need for different type of networks,like there is need for different types of cars.
(Hmmmmm.... Go figure. A new network without an ATM core. In fact even worse...an existing ATM
network migrating to packet over SONET)

Many,specially corporste customers, where margins are high need QoS, reliability or provision of service like it is in the case of Korean network serving 500 corporate customers(see press release below)

biz.yahoo.com

The networks you are talking about is serving via cable average customers, who do not need high quality video-conferencing, do not care about private lines, banking transactions etc.What they want is fast and cheap service.

Why IBM has chosen ATM form ATT solutions, which BTW is based on NN platform,for its new network serving many large US and international corporations.

AT&T Solutions Managed Bandwidth Service is based on Newbridge
Networks' MainStreetXpressTM ATM 36170 Multiservices Switch.

In 1998, AT&T Solutions
received about $7.5 billion in contracts for new long-term business -- including a $5
billion contract from IBM, a $1.4 billion contract from Bank One Corporation and a
$750 million contract from Citibank. More information about AT&T Solutions is
