<<in the future, all commmerce will be internet-based, we'll see what happens to the Wal-Marts and Barnes & Nobles then, what will they do with their deposits and giant stores>> That is an outlandish prediction. Exactly how far in the future are you predicting this?.... <<Amazon doesn't having any of the fixed costs these companies have, and at the pace it's growing, it could soon buy them out, too...>> You have got a pretty big appetite there fella...Last time I checked, WMT's market cap was over $120B....I think AMZN will choke a time or two before trying to swallow that one.....Good luck on Software.net I can see you are pretty dependent on luck!
