<<Ron, before you go mortgage the house, keep in mind that there are tremendous costs in infrastructure enhancement needed to upgrade cable to provide internet to all of those potential subs. And operating such a large network will not be easy.>>

I realize there will be many costs. I also realize that ATHM doesn't make $40 on every customer. There is much overhead and so on and so forth. My analysis was just a fast run of numbers to give you an idea on the scope of opportunity that comes along with this T deal! Do not underestimate the potential we are looking at. Also we need to remember that the net is still in its primal stages. There are ways that ATHM will make money that we have not even imagined yet. I agree that it is not as simple as it sounds, but what is? The fact of the matter is, ATHM will be bigger than AOL is @ this present time. It has MUCH better technology, and now has access to just as many homes.
