<<If AOL buys out CompuServe, creating a virtual monopoly, wouldn't the Justice Dept. object?>> OK all you Bears....time to explain to Alec why AOL has no monopoly power over its users or the ISP market.... Alec, if you rephrase the question to "won't AOL have a big block of users with a lot of inertia, familiarity and ease of use, and name recognition working in its favor?" then some of the posters hereabouts will probably agree with you, but that's not a justice dept issue. I don't think 10 million users is anywhere near a justice department issue, myself. Not with Worldnet and MSN and countless others prepared to do battle till the ink runs red. Brian
