See Sun Microsystems after the .com bubble burst. They produced a lot of the servers that .com companies were using at the time. Shriveled up after and were eventually absorbed by Oracle.

Why did Oracle survive the same time? Because they latched onto a traditional Fortune 500 market and never let go down to this day.
