The last time i checked the default campus core technology was
Ethernet.

Anyway, there's a saying at NASA (thanks, Milo :) that given
enough thrust even pigs can fly.

What i said is not that ATM cannot be made to work in some limited

overhyped technologies which tured out to be more expensive and
less reliable than simpler and dumber rivals.
