Services automation apps expect rapid growth through 2008.
The services automation apps market is crowded with more than 100 vendors intensely competing in the space. The competitive dynamics have triggered much-needed consolidation. Despite consolidation, vendors lack a clear view of the market opportunity. Will the services automation market generate $200 million or $2 billion in license revenues by 2008? Forrester expects rapid growth in services automation apps. New license revenues will exceed $300 million by 2004 and approach $400 million by 2008. Combined with maintenance revenues, the total market will grow to $820 million by 2008.

What's a 'financial underwriter' ?Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?
Then why call him God? - Epicurus

Discouraging, but I can't help but wonder how many of those "lost jobs" are computer programmer/code monkeys affected by overshoring.
From what I've read, true software engineering positions are still on the rise, while the codemonkey/programming positions eventually get overshored.
I'm amazed that most financial/economics people don't seperate them into two different categories, it's like putting mechanics and mechanical engineers in the same category."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."
