>> does this mean $100 billion, $50 billion, or $600 billion? It sure matters. VIAS is worth over a billion, for example. <<

Let's take the lowest figure you mention - $50 billion.

There are about 100 y2k vendors lited at: year2000.com

VIAS, at $1 billion is obviously one of the y2k gigants. Heck, let's say it's undervalued, and should be worth $1.5 billion, just for argument's sake.

OK, now let's say there are 9 other gigants just like VIAS, at $1.5 billion each, so with VIAS, sub total $15 billion.

Then, let's say there are 10 smaller biggies, you know baby VIAS, at $500 million each, sub total $5 billion.

Now let's say the rest of the 80 companies are worth $250 million each, total $20 billion.

Adds up?

Yup, with $10 billion to spare.
