No, here you go again. MSFT cannot give away internet access because its shareholders demand earnings instead of hype.

Oh, so that's how it works. I guess shareholders love it when you sink million of dollars into a venture that doesn't produce. Yes - that makes sense to me! I, as a shareholder, demand MSN to overtake AOL. None of the hype about MSFT "if they really, really wanted to" could squish AOL at anytime. Really, anytime they wanted to. But right now, it just doesn't make sense for them. MSFT would rather just sit back and let the money waste away. Good thing Bill and Ballmer produce software...or I wouldn't be long their stock!!!
