IDC Predicts Internet Hangover

By Diane Trommer from Electronic Buyers' News

NEW YORK -- Despite a healthy long term outlook for online commerce, research firm
International Data Corp., expects 1996 to be a year of disappointment as investors and
corporations become frustrated by the slow development of a consumer base for online
commerce.

"In 1996 we predict that the Internet/World Wide Web phenomenon will shift from today's
'intoxication' stage to a 'hangover' stage," said Frank Gens, senior vice president of research at
IDC, Framingham, Mass. "The high-flying Internet suppliers will have disappointing financial
results, while technical capabilities of the Internet are stretched to the breaking point."
