>I suppose the question is why buy tem since there is little there? Glenn, the answer is simple. That 300 million just made a lot of people very rich. VCs, friends, and business associates. Re-creating that site would make no-one rich. You've got to understand that people get into this business to make money- they could CARE LESS about the money the "company" makes. After all, a company is just some paperwork and a ficticious business name statement. Maybe the general store a grandfather built for 40 years garners loyalty, but if you think any loyalty exists in the valley you're crazy. :)
