WIN98 has an ATM stack native to the operating system. So, we will definitely see an explosion in ATM growth,... Jack, agreed with much or your post, except it wasn't clear to me where the above statement fits. Are you implying that ATM to the desktop will be a driver of explosive growth? I think traditional ATM to the desktop via ATM LANs is already dead, having been supplanted by 100Mb/s E'net now, and in the future by 1Gb/s E'net (once the physical transport issues are resolved). The only other area where ATM to the desktop might apply that I've heard of is ATM over DSL. On this, 1) its not clear ATM will be the dominant transport for this new market, 2) DSL even appearing on the desktop in volume is years away, at best.
