>With a monopoly now established over the "assisted" consumer on-line market, an increasingly familiar
brand name, competitive pricing policy introduced and a crying need for new sources of cash to fund the
business through profitability, wouldn't AOL be a perfect acquisition target for a cash rich media
company (with no outlet as yet in the on-line business)??

FYI I do not subscribe to AOL and used to be extremely bearish on its stock price.<

Yes, but not at anything close to this price. Also, I would say that using the word monopoly is a little overdoing it. Didn't Netscape once have a virtual monopoly in browser software. Do I hear the footsteps of the "Beast"?
