Wolfdog, I think you're numbers are probably good, maybe a bit low; I just don't think I'd be happy with that kind of return. I guess these past several years have spoiled me. <g> If I'm relegated to a 30-35% growth rate with AOL, I'll probably peel it off a bit faster and go with other momentum plays du jour. But I will most likely do with AOL that which I have done with INTC and SUNW, and that is, to add periodically to the position as a solid, long term core holding. Tec.

wolfdog2; You may well be right about our estimates, but the fact is, who can say? This merger puts us in a whole new, unexplored territory! We have no guidelines to compare it to.I am inclined to believe that AOL is not through dealing for the year and, if that's the case, YOUR estimates could be well off the mark. The point I was trying to make is that I want to take some time to see if the ship is really foundering before I put on a life vest and take my chances in the water.cb
