ALERT: Dell web traffic up 75% last week!!! GTW traffic up only 40%. Most of that traffic must be CONSUMERS buying before Christmas. Soon, we will be #1 in the consumer market also.

Amazon leads in Web traffic; Dell, Gateway tag along
By Monica Summers


NEW YORK, Dec 23 (Reuters) - Web retailers, who once again topped online traffic charts last week, were joined by some unlikely competitors as two major computer makers saw a healthy rise in traffic, according to a U.S. survey published Thursday.

Media Metrix statistics showed Amazon.com Inc. (NasdaqNM:AMZN - news) led the pack for yet another week with about 7 million weekly visitors to its site (http://www.amazon.com) for the week ending Dec. 19, drowning out online auctioneer eBay Inc. (NasdaqNM:EBAY - news) which had 4 million visitors for the week.

Among other sites topping the Media Metrix top 10, book retailer Barnesandnoble.com Inc. (NasdaqNM:BNBN - news), toy retailers Toys R Us Inc. (NYSE:TOY - news) and eToys Inc. (NasdaqNM:ETYS - news), and online music retailer CDnow Inc. (NasdaqNM:CDNW - news).

But joining the ranks of Web perennials like Amazon.com and eBay this week were Dell Computer Corp. (NasdaqNM:DELL - news) and Gateway Inc. (NYSE:GTW - news), which on a separate measure saw significant jumps in average daily visitors for the week ending Dec. 19.

Dell's site (http://www.dell.com) saw a 75 percent jump in traffic with 171,000 average daily visitors, while Gateway, which had been boasting Christmas delivery on some of its computers ordered by Dec. 23, saw a 40 percent jump in visitorship, averaging 108,000 visitors per day.

TTOSBT, re:<<The current market, is it a bubble or, -like those fuel-bladders the military uses to drop explosive fuel- just a well contained solid means of getting around the normal dangers? Even Alan Greenspan saw the need to add fuel to this excessiveness!>> Yes, I believe the current market is a bubble. The question that I raise is simply, how much is a stock worth? Also, how many MM's are out there just waiting to pull those sell triggers and deflate this market? I don't follow the Greenspan argument of his adding fuel to this excessiveness. Can you clarify this point?

I'd like to take a moment to wish you a Happy Holiday!!!
