Did I miss something on this, or is there a big mistake (on an otherwise interesting article).

<<Fast -- but not fast enough. Vitesse is now producing GaAs chips that can process 10 gigabits. How fast is that? Dell's (DELL:Nasdaq) top hard drive can store 9.1 gigabits of information. The GaAs chip lets you send all the data that drive can handle and more from California to New York in one second>>

Isn't a Dell drive 9.1 megaBYTES?

Hi Chris, Thanks for the posting. Interesting article and review of recent history. Wouldn't it be nice to have the Wall Street Journal for Sept. 29, 2003!! Sure would help to take some of the guesswork out of this business of investing!!

Best regards, Tom
