Conan, I recall seeing a newspaper story about a local auctioneer who runs a pretty big business selling used office furniture. After the tech wreck, his inventory expanded tremendously.

Some people were able to buy from him and create some pretty nice home offices for themselves (after all, those start-ups didn't scrimp when it came to buying quality furnishings), not to mention the bigger companies that were able to redecorate their offices on the cheap.

So at least some people benefitted from that debacle.
