Mark, been busy get back with you on float, thanks.
Art Aol uses the" new math" in their calculations.
Since most of their sucribers are on "charge cards", they have instant collection. Most companies would have to wait min 30 days after product shipped. In addition, they collect in advance for service. This is nice if your in a business that can do that.
It is impossible to figure out other people's projections until you know their assumptions.
Where did we get ther 50% from??
One reason I could see them putting all users on 19.95 charge is some users never log on. I know three people that are subscribers to AOL and never use it the charge just appears on their credit card and they pay it. Who knows Y.

The mouse just stumbled into a gold mine. And it's not the fees it's all the junk they will be able to sell around the world.
The mouse will give Bill some serious competition. They are so strong in other countries, people just can't wait to get to USA and go to Disneyland.
Money never seems to be an object when it comes to visiting the theme park or buying all the Disney junk.. I wish this was a separate co, I would buy stock in it yesterday.
