"please tell me what you can do on aol but you can't do on yahoo."

Alot more people on the AOL community than are on Yahoo...I presume you don't have kids(teenagers)...If you did, you'd see why AOL will be the internet leader for a LONG time...Most people who own computers don't know the difference between AOL and the internet, in fact, most probably think AOL IS the internet...While this may be a sad statement about how computer smart most AOL users are, the bottom line is that everytime someone new walks into a computer store to buy a computer, they won't be asking for the internet, they WILL be asking for AOL...and once they have their AOL, there's no way in hell that their kids will let them give it up...Just check out the demographics...see how many switched to free isps, then see how many switched back to AOL...You might be surprised at what you find...though I'm sure not, and that's why I'll be holding AOL at least through the $250 range...Good luck on your YHOO.
