Hi Pigboy, Here is an interesting article from Fortune about B2B growth and why it will skyrocket. --------------------------- "Banc of America Securities analyst Bob Austrian estimates that worldwide B2B electronic commerce will grow from less than $20 billion in 2000 to roughly $13 trillion in 2004--a 650-fold increase. That's an incredible growth rate, but the cost savings inherent in B2B transactions explains why it may not be far off. On average, corporations spend $100 on paperwork alone each time they make a purchase, Austrian says. Moving those transactions to the Web could slash costs by 90%" --------------------------- An Internet Storage Platform able to run $13 Trillion in ecommerce would have to be pretty big and powerful, I like it! How much longer after that until we hit $50 Trillion. I wonder who will be the first Trillionaire, Larry Ellison or somebody just starting an internet company today. fortune.com Joe
