In the press release, there is this quote:
Possible explanations I can think of are:
1) Servers weren't scalable enough and had insurmountable lag problems.
2) Games like EQ2 have insanely cool gfx and models, especially on high-end hardware, and DE would have had to redo their engine AND all their models to compete, given their release date.
3) It was purely financial and blaming "technology" is just a way to save face and retreat.
