I believe ATHM is a prize possession and the fight is just starting and test balloons (false stories) are being floated everyday.... let's go back to that rumored 17bil offer!....$70 premium isn't much for a suitor w/ vision....that will be my starting point...maybe the math came out lower...55-60?

>>Yahoo wanted ATHM now ML analyst says it would be in AOL's best interest to just buy ATHM here. << No way! Not even AOL's over valued stock can go through a twice over valued ATHM valuations. Also what makes anyone think T is just going to give their stake up? ATHM is currently valued for what coul dbe. It aint there yet and I dont think Case is stupid enough to put that kind of money down on a what could be without having the experience or management capable of handling it. T has the best chance to make ATHM a reality. CNBC was saying T wanted $10/subscriber for the use of ATHM and AOL offered $3. So they threw out the food. Remember, lots of high speed access in the works. In an year things might look totally different than they are now. And what appears as the most obvious is not necessarely what takes over. Pokemon for instance.. I am still drooling with barby.. and that purple dino. and my dirty cabbage patch.
