The Diana press release is reminiscient of the ktel days when they made press releases out of the company's ceo providing a $7 mm line of credit or of te release of a video called "once upon a tune" the story of singing quartet of animal, a dog, cat, donkey and something else for good family entertainment -- folks i'm not making this sh-t up -- why in the world would anyone deem what's on amzn's top 100 list as newsworthy? i could care less. LP, You and I know this was just for free publicity. It is tacky business lacking ethics which is typical of the firm in question. AOL H-P deal -- interesting -- could be a harbinger of the portal wars to come -- yahoo, nscp et al sign up deals with different pc vendors (who in turn have their own shopping networks) as for aol, i still fail to see how they make money when in the medium term everyone who does not suffer from vicious bouts of inertia will use other cheaper services and/or just log on from work or school through a lovely LAN or dedicated ISDN line , but i digress. Most do suffer from inertia. That is the reason in my opinion. Glenn
