I have been away all weekend, and come back to over 150 messages to sort through on the ATHM thread. As I started sifting through the endless banter, I quickly realized the main reason for the excess in posts. A certain ATHM critic was back on the boards. I must take my hat off to this critic because of the way he is able to take control of this thread. Not only does he control it, but he also belittles persons ideas and opinions, while all the while getting people to thank and compliment him. Reminds me of a snake oil salesman, whom seduces his customers with eloquent speech, then over charges them for a worthless product. The customers all leave smiling thinking they got a great deal, while the salesman comes out of the deal smelling like a rose(snickering inside while he smiles and waves to the customers as they are walking out the door). My hat is off to you sir, for you have everyone snowed! Over 150 posts disseminating much information or disinformation, which ever you prefer. Everything was mentioned that could be mentioned. Mergers, acquisitions, FTC/FCC problems, monopolies, TWX/T/RR/UMG/MSFT/AOL/CMC/COX, Broadband, ADSL, RBOC, etc...... So where has all of this led? Everyone is exhausted and more confused than when they started! I want to save everyone any further confusion they might come across. Buy ATHM on any dip! I will say it one more time. Buy ATHM on ANY dip. This IS and will CONTINUE to be one of the fastest growing stocks in the tech sector. Just buy and hold, it is that simple. Don't let all of the impressive snake oil salesmen tell you anything different.
