Surely tomorrow's giants will come from the sectors that are revolutionizing business, no? They well may. But remember the stupendous scale we're talking about: combining IBM, Microsoft, Intel and Cisco, for example, wouldn't even come close to hitting our $200 billion mark. That fact points up a hard truth about corporate size. Infotech--or telecommunications or entertainment--may well be the world's largest industry in coming decades, but that doesn't mean it will harbor the world's largest company...

The index finished on Friday at 3321, well below the week-earlier bottom of 3649.

...plight of the e-tailers and information providers sharply separates them from their more resilient Internet and technology brethren that have been able to show--ta-da!--actual profits.

Yeah. The world ended. The fact that the NASDAQ may have hit a new high by the time you read these words doesn't erase the vague sense in dotcomland that the party, if not quite over, is definitely winding down. It's behemoths like Cisco and Intel that are keeping the NASDAQ afloat. The Web bubble is bursting. Has burst. Which means that some of us now roaring toward online glory may instead face that Wile E. Coyote moment when you look down and realize you just sprinted off a cliff...

...prize awaits the dominant player in the voice-over IP business, in which voice is transmitted the same way as data--via the Net. Stealing a march on the competition, Cisco on Monday unveiled a new IP telephone that will allow corporations to use their data backbones for voice communication. Wireless networks loom as the next important phase of the Web. And then there's biotechnology, in which all these new systems are being applied to the natural sciences. And what about nanotechnology, with its tiny self-replicating machines? So, who will be the market-cap kings in 10 years...
