Isn't there a time limit on stock options? Recently, I read where a CEO sold because his options would expire.

I've been trying to figure out I-Planet. There was news about it this morning.

Is I-Plant an alliance between Sun, AOL & Netscape plus the new companies that joined this morning?

Does Sun need to buy AOL? Personally, I don't like AOL very much. I log onto AOL and then look at Yahoo. But I realize that many people who use AOL correspond with family, friends etc.

EMC has been on a tear? You figure it's just catching up. I know they expect great earnings with approximately 35% profit margins. EMC's CEO has said Y2K won't cut into their profits and margins significantly. CSCO keeps moving ahead as well.

PS: plt, I'll take a look.

NYTimes says that MSFT will release web-based software this week.

Sonki, please explain why SUNW might be interested in buying AOL. I personally think that AOL is destined to fall.

Thanks.
