I think the press is making too big a deal comparing Yahoo to AOL. Yahoo doesn't have the distribution issues AOL has.

Tim Koogle pointed out recently (and I'm sure he will again tomorrow) that Yahoo alone is 40% of the Internet traffic on Sprint PCS...without any compensation to Sprint.

I'd love to see them buy eBay, though. I think the combination would be superb.

>>>The numbers Yahoo is putting out now make it the new Microsoft.<<<

According to IR, the meeting tomorrow is a routine get together. It saves the company traveling to other conferences. There's no hint of a big announcement.

If MSFT had the PE of YHOO, their stock would be closer to 1000. I don't see how this new economy valuation can be sustained. Call me old fashioned and poor.
