As we all know, at this stage, for I-net companies what matters is not the EARNING, but the REVENUE. Therefore instead of looking at EPS to determine if a stock is relatively cheap or expensive, one should look at price-to-sales ratio. In last week's Barron's there is a table that listed major I-net companies' ratio. Surprisingly (or no surprise at all), while many small newly IPOs have ratios way above 100, some of the best I-net stocks that analysts like are among the lowest in the group. I vaguely remember some of them in the following list,
AOL 40
AMZN 35
NSOL 32
CNET 45
DCLK 55
EGRP 47
CMGI 67

On top of the surprising low ratio, we all know that these companies are actually producing the biggest sustainable revenue growth in the group. That's why analysts love them so much. That's why I think all of the above stocks still have big upside potential.
