OT, I thought you would enjoy this quote concerning AOL: "Robertson Stephens analyst Keith Benjamin said the March report represented the first time AOL had produced a straightforward earnings surprise without resorting to clever accounting." First time! I guess everyone knew they were fixing the numbers. ''This is a new era for AOL,'' Benjamin said as he predicted more such earnings surprises. ''I believe this is the first step toward future displays of more significant earnings leverage going forward.'' The analyst, who maintains a strong buy rating on the stock, pounded the table after the conference call with AOL officials. He said he planned to boost his estimates for the company's fourth quarter ended in June by ''a few pennies.'' ''It is not too late to buy this stock,'' Benjamin said. ''Earnings and price targets can still go up. There is a big prize for first place on the Web and AOL is showing how big that prize can be.'' Lets see AOL is valued at 18 Billion yet they are only making 18MM in profit. I guess it's a matter of perspective. The next thing we will probably see is the Amazon analysts pounding the table while telling everyone it's not too late to buy the stock. :^) Kirby
