Tom W and others..is it politically correct to make comparisons to Yahoo and General motors? I mean I hear these comparisons made very often...ie Yahoo's market cap vs. Union Carbide.... but is such a comparison valid??? I mean we are talking about a business that makes cars with huge inventory costs and capital investment requirements vs. a digital business that is able to spread like wildfire to every corner of the globe in a second... I am not saying that Yahoo is a cheap stock but I am not sure one can make these apples vs oranges comparisons..... Warren Buffet said that the newspaper business is one of the best businesses around ie. washington post...because it essentially is a business that almost receives a royalty on every business in the community.....well with Yahoo being Global in scope and internet businesses just in their infancy...imagine the royalties this puppy will get 5 years from now... tom
