Isn't it a bit late for Compaq to join this battle?
''We are ahead of everybody else,'' Pfeiffer told Reuters in an interview. ''You may say that's just talk, but let me give you the facts. We have not been communicating how strong Compaq is in the total Internet structure.'' EXCEED $50 BILLION???? YES!
''Fifty billion dollars by 2000, we could possibly exceed that. This is very achievable,'' PfeEliffer said.
Almost sounds like the price of Alta Vista is irrelevant in EP's mind. Hmmmmmmm, what is he thinking????
When asked how much the company might be worth, Pfeiffer said: ''Half a billion dollars, a billion dollars, I don't know, they are just numbers.''
''We pick the timing when we file the application to proceed, and we'll look at the whole Internet market place and stock prices and valuations and so on. We will try and pick the best timing,''Pfeiffer told Reuters.
