John,

First, QoS is Quality of Service. This is an issue for frame oriented nets such as frame relay and IP. ATM delivers guaranteed QoS as outlined in the standards for CBR (constant bit rate), VBR (variable bit rate), ABR (Available bit Rate, and UBR (Unassigned bit Rate). These QoS attributes allow different traffic types to be assigned to them and each deliver unique Service Qualities. CBR for instance is great for streaming video since it delivers a guaranteed and constant amount of bandwidth to an assigned device. With frame and IP it's simply best effort - today. Vendors that are centered on these two technologies however are working towards delivering QoS on their nets. In the long run most industry luminaries believe this will be the long term answer mainly because there is already such a large investment in this type of hardware. These same luminaries also believe that long term ATM will rule in the core of these same nets.

As for YURI's growth going forward, your guess is as good as mine...perhaps even better. I've posted my opinions which is I believe that YURI can hold their position for 6-9 more months...perhaps a year on the outside. By this time YURI's growth IMO will be slower than market growth. Again this is just my opinion based upon the information I have. What do you think? Can YURI maintain or grow their market share for the long term? If so, how do you think they'll execute on this?
