Brent, <<...but it wouldn't surprice me if AOL manages to hold on until next quarter before things really hit the fan. . .>> Another quarter would let the cost of acquiring Compuserve show up on AOL's earnings report. Since AOL has said they are going to try to keep Compuserve separate to serve a different market--in other words, do little beyond a little network juggling to make an unprofitable business profitable--those earnings should make interesting reading. Yes, AOL usually runs up ahead of earnings and this time, with a potential split in the wind, they'll try to give it a little extra umph. Best -Steve
