Hi Pass, RE: "out of the $25 billion annual sales, what does the percentage of sales belong to this kind of scheme?"

Here's an article to give you an idea on the scale of VC investments:

redherring.com
Lawrence Aragon

"The past few years have been beyond an aberration."

VC Investments:
1994 $6 billion
1997 $17.9B
1998 $30B
1999 $82B
...
Venture Economics's research shows that until 1999, VCs as a whole never invested more than $10 billion a year. For most of the 1990s, they invested less than $2 billion a year. When you look at it that way, $40 billion is manna."

From $2B to $82B.

That $82B makes Y2K's $30B look like a speed bump in comparison to what flooded the market the other year.

Regards,
Amy J
