Electrical power and maybe rack space, but the glass strands of the dark fiber were still perfectly good a number of years later, once demand catches up. Buildings and such still need continuous maintenance. In addition, the actual computational equipment (such as the GPUs that have given nvidia the highest market cap in the world) will be totally worthless.
I can only imagine what could grow out of an oversupply of rack-space and electrical power generation, post-crash.
