AOL is THE best isp/content provider that we have available today. how could anybody ever short such a rocket? the shorts obviously have little or no common sense. now excuse me while i go blow my brains out.

You know what amazes me about the bears on this thread - the majority keep on clinging, tooth and nail. I keep seeing the same thing posted over and over and over - it's gotta fall, overvalued, tomorrow will be another day, etc. etc.

At this rate, I agree with Robert - you will probably see another stock split in the near future. Just a cursory glance at the history, it seems like every 5 months, which would put us around September. Of course, if the stock keep going up at this rate, we could split again even sooner. Rob, hope your long :-)

I know come quarter numbers in May, we will revist all the bears again posting the same arguments. I'm gonna retire to the deck now and light up a cigar!

Why should we wait until the end of this year? I say we will see $100 by June 30. And another split to $50 and see $100 again by Dec. 31. All the fund managers who did not buy AOL last quarter will buy as much as they can. How can Microsoft compare with this great company? By the end of this century, we will see AOL pass Microsoft as the largest company in the world.
