The reluctance of the public to travel and gather in public places may just be the spur to the horse that the internet needs.

We're just beginning to solve many of the security problems associated w/internet business xactions. Look for massive investment in optical fiber cabling and high-speed video conferencing equipment. Need to go Xmas shopping but scared of the mall now?? Buy on-line. That will be a boon to on-line retailing and the internet infrastructure suppliers. People may vacation closer to home, but still spend the bucks.

Down in the valley there are lots of jobs opening up for embedded systems engineers. Mainly for security-based companies, both software & hardware.

I agree that there will be a lot of uncertainty for a while. Bad for the equity markets for sure. But a depression???? Hmm... I'm not convinced of that prospect as yet.
