The same bear argument can be made for Yahoo! as AOL. How do we know Yahoo! has 50 million users? Who audited the numbers? How do they determine what a "member" is. I have looked at Yahoo! lately, in fact every day. 50 million "users" for Yahoo! means 50 million free e-mail addresses, not real "members." Anyone can sign up for free e-mail, and never use it once. I can't remember how many times I have signed up for stuff on the net - and have never gone back to that site. As for AOL "...not competing. Period." I'm LOL!!!!! What are you basing your lucid research on? Further, you think Yahoo! never goes down or has service problems? Maybe you haven't used it enough. Quotes go down often - just look for the nice red letter at the top of saying sorry. You must have made tons of money on the street, since you can look into a crystal ball and predict that AOL will drop 15+ points in one day. I guess you also predicted the INTC fiasco, CPQ and DELL. I always enjoy these bear predictions. Now, no precdictions but simply fact - AOL is testing it's 52 week high as we speak. S.
