ATHM president may see his company as being a content provider. But they have to ramp up considerably in this arena if they plan to catch up with AOL. I would first suggest they catch up with the smaller ones first before they decide to go after AOL. ATHM's core business is not content. And they cannot compete in this regard. I think only MSFT has the horsepower to go after the content business and again if they decide to do so, they will have to figure out how they can continue to hold their fort in the software business of OS and browser.

<<Adjusting the base rate up in $500 increments, our calculations yield values of $212 per share at the $3,500 level, $242 at the $4,000 level, and $273 per user at the $4,500 level. Accordingly, we remain highly confident in our $212 price target as a conservative and supportable price objective for shares of AOL. Prudential Securities Incorporated makes a primary over-the-counter market shares of Excite@@Home, RCN Corp., and Microsoft. >>>>> $212 sounds just fine to me !!!
