STOP COMPARING APPLES TO TOMATOES. Each product has a specific customer base and an expected user rate. Think of it this way: If I have a store that sells, tomatoes, bread, butter, and silverware (knives); am I going to sell the same volume (quantity or dollars) of each item. I DON'T THINK SO!!! Will the items which cost more be bought as often as the lesser. (i.e. Over a 3 month period - one quarter, will I sell as many knives, used to spread butter, as I will sell pounds of butter, or bushels of tomatoes, or loaves of bread?) I DON'T THINK SO!!! If I'm that far off base, perhaps I should stop thinking. Jim Porter

If your calculations are correct. 46 Mil shares for Yahoo and its selling at $148, what in heck are we talking buy backs, etc. etc. Is 11 million shares THAT gross for this company to have its share price go up to a respectable level???? And buy back shares WITH WHAT. I'd rather them use the revenue to upgrades, and new acquisiitons. I just don't get why 11 million shares is that unacceptable for this company. The other companies had less shares but their initial share sprice must have been much higher, yes? I mean, people, we got into this one for pennies. If they had any more shares out I'd be concerned, but 11 million considering how hot internet stock is, I don't see FNTN having ANY trouble making it to $5-$10 a share once they get their feet runing.
