My only question would be will people like Peter Lynch or Warren Buffet pay these kind of prices for these stocks? Well, Warren Buffet would have done better if he bought AMZN this yr 37% vs 290% :-)) AMZN bigcharts.com Warren B. bigcharts.com --Olu E.

AMZN management must be really good if the company is worth 3 times what BKS is worth. BKS had revenue of 2.8 billion last year, AMZN might get to 500 million if all goes well this year. Oh yeah, BKS has stores. I'd never buy a book from AMZN. I go to Barnes and Noble all the time. I get a danish and coffee, people watch for awhile, bump into a friend, check out the magazines, listen to some music, sit on a couch, flip some pages, ask an employee where the new one from Preston is, buy an Investors Business Daily and a paper back and head home. Oh, and I never have to wait 3 days for UPS to bring my IBD. Dave
