Lets get honest! Aol will buy Amzn, because Kleiner, Perkins will make it happen. Albeit at a cheaper price! Do you think that S. Case has lost his bargin hunter skills?

>>Mary doesn't lowball anything. I have found that here estimates are on the high end.

As a calibration check on that statement, I believe there was an article within the last week or so where she was talking up her whispernumber of -$0.52 vs the consensus estimate of -$0.57, while the whispernumber on whispernumber.com was and is -$0.41.
