>Yahoo's in the S&P, has operating margins (yes, KIS operating margins, >not interest income) near Microsoft's percentages, Yet the fact remains that in last quarters statement, almost 75% of the total income was from investment INTEREST. It has high operating margins, but it has never shown that it can increase the AMOUNT of sales to microsoft levels. DeBeers has an operating margin of around 2000%, but that doesnt automatically mean they can start selling 5 billion diamonds a year. Most of Yahoo's ad space still goes unsold. And there isn't a single public internet company in existence that has revealed to the SEC how much of their "revenue" is actually banner-barter. Not that I personally will be surprised when the truth finally comes out..
