Again - there is no comparision . EBAY was never a company that entered the NASDAQ via the back door thru the purchase of a shell company. EBAY had been followed by Mary Meeker - and was brought in the front door - they were IPOd by Morgan Stanley.

Please show me a viable internet stock that agreed to a discounted convertible , that had a prayer of being courted by one of the big firms. It couldn't be for lack of trying - these firms make a significant amt of their capital from bringing young internet companies public - they are searching for them every day. And frankly - I want to be long the internet stocks where their research has shown they are worthy of the big firms attention .

One very important caveat to remember about the nets - " the strong get stronger and the weak get weaker"
