What about the fact that companies will have to run test systems before they put the corrected programs into production? Test systems mean that companies will have to buy extra hardware from SUNW etc. that is the same as the production system, otherwise they can't be sure that the programs will work in a production mode. No IT manager who wants to keep his job would put a system into production without testing it as fully as possible.

What is the 500 BILLION going toward?

Hopefully some of this estimate is estimated to go toward test/extra hardware. How many StarFires can they buy with 500 Billion? Hmmm...

Sorry, I was just day dreaming.
