The 600 billion dollar figure that has been widely touted by De Jaeger and others is the first chink in this line of thinking. The second is assuming that outfits like TAVA are going to garner big contracts simply because they are in the business. Remember, they are up against heavy hitters like CSC and CA. These companies have long standing relationships with the big customers. They also have financial viability (they have been profitable for some time) and technical credibility (they are already executing large Y2K remediation efforts).
