The land grab. Now they get to develop it. Bill, You need to understand this "stuff" far better. Amazon is losing market share. Amazon is losing it quickly. There is no such thing as a land grap in retail. Even though I very much like Yahoo, they are losing money currently and having difficulty convincing their users to pay for services. Did you ever take any business courses in college? I am kind of curious about that. Edit: Did you attend college?

Re: "the land grab" -- what "land" is that? La-La-Land? There are stores with land -- JC Penny for example would probably be more valuable if sold for its land value. Vaporwear companies don't have any land -- they have "virtually" no assets, which was their business model -- yes? Companies like AMZN will simply not be able to pay their bills and will be divied up for whatever the scavengers can get for the scraps -- like excite@home selling for $11 million after once having a market cap of $6.7 billion. Companies like Yahoo will sell at a discount to the cost of reproducing them, and that cost is falling all the time.
