Paul, I think many people here under estimate the power of mass
and brand name. In US economy, any industry will result in
monoply eventually. For example, doesn't WMT have any competition?
Of course! WMT faced as stiff a competition in its early
years as AMZN faces today or AOL faces today. Yet, in the end,
there could one only one WMT.

BTW, whether YHOO is a cat or a lion should be answered today.
So far, it still looks like a lion:)

Exactly what I was thinking. You beat me to posting it. The people that I know who are just getting a PC and connecting to the Internet don't know much about what's out there in "Cyber Space". AOL makes it easy for the novices. Other ISPs typically don't offer much help. Just bare-bones connectivity.

Paul,

- AOL is no Wal-Mart

- Walmart operates on razor thin margins & sells to everyone

- AOL is about the most expensive ISP out there
