Hi. Jim, Just to correct your post re:AOL and 32 bits. I currently use Aol and also use E-TRADE . On E-TRADE they offer free charts called E-WATCH. Now , to run that program you must have at least Netscape 3.01 or more which requires a 32 bit OS. The AOL CD ROM for Windows 95 offered by AOL for Free is a 32 bit application which runs Netscape 3.01 and E-Watch on E- Trade. So, therefore you're information re: AOL and 16 bit OS is not exactly correct. I realize you are very negative on AOL (which is very obvious) however I thought that in fairness this should be pointed out. Since, I have taken my long profits I felt I could offer this without any motive other than being fair to them. Yes, they do have their problems and you probably are very correct in assuming that AOL could go lower in the near future, but I still believe that their growth will be phenomenal in the future and the only question will be whether they can bring that to the bottom line. If you remember I projected a price target to you sometime in the past and was "lucky" to hit it within 2 days right on the button. Good Luck. Ted
