Nope, you are correct William. Steve Harmon did a little experiment except he was comparing "all" (translation - well known) internets vs. Microsoft. He did not include infrastructure inet companies like cisco. Anyway at that time there was aol at 100b, then yhoo and amzn then 30b or so and everybody else was under 10. Msft was 350 billion so it was larger than all inets combined. That was a pretty convincing argument in defense of yhoo/aol/amzn mkt cap (for me anyway). BTW the millionaire next door was beaucoup lame. But hey, if I ever want a lesson in negotiation in saving 2K on a used car purchase... it fills the bill
