Rascal,
You comment, The analogy with he cars proves my point.
The size of the market for cars now is huge.
Those meeting the needs of drivers has prospered.
FORD is still doing great!

Did someone say AOL wouldn't prosper? I thought the question was how much they would proper, a lot, or a real lot.

The point of all the newbie discussion was that over time AOL will have to adjust its marketing to a more sophisticated population just as anyone who owns a fuel-injected, electronic ignition Ford with power everything might not want a Model T except as a curiosity. AOL will need to draw in a more sophisticated user.
Best,
--Steve
