jimb,

1. Probably a non-factor. That road has been travelled and paced out a few times now.

2. Actually, last year did not see flat growth during this quarter in Europe. It surprised analysts and is likely to do so again. Remember, new countries are coming on line all the time now.

3. I think this is also a non-issue. Biogen has targeted Amevive for launch in late 2001 (roughly).

4. As far as PE goes, Biogen should earn close to $2 over the next year, a significant rise over the past 12 months and a growth rate that many people thinks justifies a high PE. What acceptable PE ratios will be in the future is anyone's guess.
