I think that AOL's growth will slow as these current generations of school and college kids graduate and as business moves onto the Internet. Perhaps, but not anytime soon. Meanwhile, plunging PC prices will continue to lure unwashed masses into the AOL net. If AOL has a weakness, it is that in the minds of consumers it may be too closely associated with the PC ownership. IMO, the new generation of digital settop boxes may render the home PC as we know it obsolete within the next 5 years. PTB
