Hi craig,

I agree with that older article in some ways. Business is much more efficient with use of the internet. I know this from the chip business. A website is much easier to update then a databook, it's great being able to order stuff with just a few button pushes. Finding what you want at a competitive price is much faster overall. This (internet) business is now already well established. Sure, only a few percent of transactions are currently over the net, but for business to business I see that as increasing significantly.

At the same time the internet companies have to stop dying like flies for things to improve. It may take a while for this to work through imho. Of course every "bricks and morter" company can be a "internet company" just by buying a few PC's and creating a website. Sure... they may have to hire some IT guys, but those guys get more affordable every day -g-
