Anyone:
It has often been stated that the Internet economy is going to grow to $1T in 3 yrs.

However the current facts are that the present GDP is $9T and historically growing at less than 4%.

Similarly every Q we hear of huge productivity gains. A gain in Productivity must result in either shorter work hours or increase in real quantity of goods/worker.

Would appreciate if some one could explain

a: how the $1T will be reached and what would be the forecast GDP in 2003.?

b:Why there is no correlation between the productivity claims and the GDP even though the work hours have remained constant.

Thanks.
