Sam,

Speaking of AOL: The @Home installer just left my house 5 minutes ago. Installation took about 1.5 hours including the running of some wire.

Very nice. Very fast.

Another AOL account bites the dust.

Sam,

I am usually a quiet observer here, but you continually make predictions regarding an ATHM/AOL deal, and say how much ATHM would run up if such a deal were to happen. Why?

If ATHM were purchased, I could understand it. But a deal between AOL and ATHM would probably result in a mass exodus out of ATHM stock. I hope it would pop, because I would be gone that day. A lot of people I know feel the same way.

Exactly what would AOL bring to the table besides eyeballs? And if eyeballs were the key, why not strike a deal with Real Networks? They have 85M registered users instead of 19M.

I have never seen anyone anywhere state with any credence why a deal would help ATHM in any way, shape, or form. If you or anyone else on this thread could do that, I'd appreciate it. Even if you just think that it is hype that will push the stock up, that is fine. Empty hype gives us all a chance to bail. If you cannot, it would be nice if you could refrain from stating your beliefs over and over again. It's getting to be like that Alberto VO5 commercial....And so on....And so on..And so on...
