<<I don't think this is that big. MCI internet doesn't have that many users.>> MCI didn't have Yahoo! driving it before. Don't underestimate the Yahoo! brand "the force". <<What's the drawing point, that you go to Yahoo when your browser opens. Big deal. Anyone not using AOL, MSN, etc. is competing on service and price, not what your browser opens to.>> The default browser page has been one of the most important "land-grab" areas in the history of the internet. Why do you think Netscape and Microsoft get so many hits. Why do you think Yahoo! is paying such a premium to Netscape for Netscape destinations? Why did Yahoo! work a deal with Microsoft? Peter
