Comparing EBAY to INFR is ridiculous. Different businesses altogether. Why do it? It makes no sense and leads people to draw incorrect conclusions.

INFR, like dozens of independent software vendors, is a company leveraging the Web as a platform for deploying customer centric applications. EBAY is a pure Internet play that is trading at 90 times SALES, and the metrics for evaluating pure Internet companies are suspect, unproven, and very risky. While it would be nice for investors, INFR will never have that kind of valuation simply because it utilizes the Internet. Instead, it must consistently report solid, profitable numbers. I think it can, but it should be understood that INFR is not an Internet stock as defined by the market at large.
