If they were all VPN remote access users, and you collected $10 a year from each of them for maintenance, that's $1 billion. If they spend $100 to equip themselves initially, that's $10 billion. And that's just remote access for corporate users.

U.S. Corporate Profits: Outlook And Credit Implications. Up until now, this has been subdued by strong corporate liquidity positions, but with manufacturing activity expected to rev up (as hinted by the fairly strong ISM manufacturing numbers and orders growth) and margins of slack in the economy set to diminish, strong growth in capital expenditures will be needed.
