BNYN at $3.00 a share vs book value at $2.71 a share. Cash on hand is $22M. I doubt if BNYN will go it alone. Obviously, switchboard.com is coveted by Portal companies without long term arrangements with yellow/white page search engine companies. This leaves out AOL, Yahoo, and Netscape. But how about Lycos (terrible search engine supplied by GTE), Excite, Infoseek, Inkotomi? Also, what will happen to Banyan's other business? Is there any company who could use BOTH lines of businesses? The answer is YES : COMPAQ (with DEC and Alta Vista)? The DEC sales force could run with the Banyan product line and switchboard.com would be folded into Alta Vista. Comments welcome A
