FWIW, I heard of at least one Nortel manager having to work very late each night last week to get new switches built and shipped to NY. I suppose some were lost when the WTC towers collapsed? Furthermore, I can imagine major computer services companies have been deployed to re-deploy systems and solutions lost. Certainly, any company worth their salt had exact backups offsite in case of catastrophic failure, but those backups now need backups - or new primary systems.

I'm curious to see if this will bolster certain industry segments, though I certainly didn't want to see it happen this way.

The chance, that history will get a new chapter, which will make QCOMs, TNTs & Co of our past few months here a non-issue, is looming on my radar at the moment.
