As Eric Wells recently showed us with a chart of insider sales in relation to internut sales or profits, the answer is clear:

The only people making serious money on the net are those who are selling shares to the public.

Outside of CSCO. Intel makes chips for PCs that would be purchased without the net, and MSFT makes their money from the OS end of the biz. Their net operations are still a money pit from which no profits have yet emerged.

Ike, Pcln the best short in America.Trust me on that,
>>Priceline.com (PCLN: news, msgs) fell 5 3/32, or 8.1 percent, to 58 5/32. Morgan Stanley resumed coverage of the e-commerce phenom with an "outperform" rating. Internet analyst Mary Meeker pointed out that valuation will remain a concern and that a large number of Priceline shares will become unrestricted and available for sale over the next couple of months with more than 5 million shares unleashed on September 26.
Would you believe that Mary isn't even mentioning Pcln's, near to accounting fraud?
Fortune magazine told us about this scam only a few issues back.
Did you know that Pcln is going to suck some of Williams profits away?
Ps
Did you also know that I've been so busy this week, I'm thinking about retiring again?
