NY Times Best Seller List FREE FOR ALL, BNBN, BKS or AMZN or BGP
(The Judge has ruled on the lawsuit)

Now there is nothing stopping the price Wars, and I think AMZN has too much "budgeted" by their own admission over the next three years into building "brick and mortar" warehouses, that BKS and BNBN (Barnes and Nobel rick and Mortar and Internet, respectively separate companies) can now "evenly compete" which means outperform AMZN, since AMZN will voluntarily not try to create value as in a positive P/E, putting its money into the uncertainties of the 3 year future. This is good news for BNBN, BKS, and BGP (Borders) I think.
I am,

Neil, I just heard a caller on CNBC talk about trying to buy Barnes and Noble and I don't think he had a clue (nor did the analyst seem to) about the difference between BKS and BNBN. Maybe I'm all wet but it seems they talk about Barnes and Noble and then flash the BNBN chart up on the screen. What a fiasco! Did BKS cease to exist?????? Good thing I have gains to offset.:o(
