Dot Com To Dot Bomb

I was not involved in technology during the .com bust, but I did make alot of money indirictly. I was in construction working down in vancouver washington. The project was SEH. It was a japanese company that grew wafers for nintendo. This project was huge. It lasted about 3 yrs and as soon as it completed the dot com crash happened. The company never moved into the final phase of the project. The project was a two phase project each phase was a building. After completing the first phase the company moved in I was still coming into the building to complete punch list issues. about half way through phase 2 the punch list items of phase 1 were complete. So basically SEH occupied their building for about a year and a half. We also worked on some buildings for Nintendo in Hillsboro Oregon as well.
Another interesting thing that happened during the crash was auctions from dot com liquidations. I went to an auction in Bellevue the auction company was the ?.?.Murphy company out of Kenmore. The environment was so chaotic that a friend of mine paid $100 for a deskjet printer that he could have gotten at re-pc for $20. I think Murphy was the only one making money.
