Nothing may happen but it is interesting to see the potential here: AOL/TWX has RR and 1/3 the cable internet traffic. As Dovark pointed out: If there are companies that could be adversely affected by this merger, on the surface it looks like the Walt Disney (NYSE: DIS - news) and Microsoft (Nasdaq: MSFT - news). It seems that there are a lot of possibilities out there and enough pressure to make something happen. Could DIS strike a deal with ATHM who has about 2/3 the cable internet traffic? I have the feeling that there will be at least one big merger in 2001 involving people like YHOO, AMZN, DIS, etc. Everybody know what AOL is going to do. AOL is not a "walled garden". AOL is the Borg. Comming attractions: The coaster plague. Billions and billions of coasters from hell. Stick one in your CD slot and you are assimilated by the Borg. Trapped for life in a AOL world that is "always on". Time for everybody else to circle the wagons and start making deals. ****************** OT: Just for laughs: Message 15043662
