The way they will finance their opperations is to ask each
AOL subscriber to donate $1 to Keep AOL in Business Fund. If they
do it sooner than later they will raise more money.

Time & Newsweek
both had stories on the problems they have had and will have. Both are
a must read. One article said that after the spend 350 millions to
up grade their system if all subscribers got on at once, they could
only service 5% of them.

Basically AOL is trying to spin that they are soooooooo popular that
they can't make enought product for the consumer. Same problem Nintendo
had they pushed all their unsatisfied customer to Sega.
