OT (ESV,YHOO) you are missing the point.

You can moan about the low multiples of the OS as compared to Yahoo all you want but you are looking at next year. When you look at the likely EPS situation 10 years from now I am sure you will admit that you'd rather have a share of Yahoo in 10 years than a share of ESV. That is what today's valuation is based upon. I am not defending it, just stating the obvious.

Hmmm...why do you think that YHOO may be twice or three times as likely to succeed as ESV?? Not that it really matters.....but I'm curious.
