From what I see, there seems to be a lot of emphasis on GigE and
the very rapidly upcoming 10GigE combined with QOS now adays. ATM
really doesn't seem to work that well with data (TCP/IP) and has a very
high overhead. Ethernet is getting fast enough that when combined with
QOS it can easily handle voice and video as well as data. Also,
ethernet is cheap, cheap, cheap; even GigE when you compare it with
ATM, and just about everybody knows how to handle ethernet, but ATM is
something that relatively few people know really well.
