I just want to repeat one more times. AOL was in much worse situation than AMZN is. AOL didn't have 90% market share in the early days. It might have 9% percent at best, if not 0.9%. It is very small, even tiny compared to its competitors, like CompuServe. And Prodigy had a couple of giants as its daddy. And AOL did not make any money for a long, long, long , long time. AOL even had to face MSFT's direct competition. Pleaes try to get the facts correct. It is your own money to lose. I hvae never seen any stock's bears so uncareful about facts than AMZN's. Tie, I am not sure this is directed at me. However, I never stated AOL had 90% market share. That was someone else. Secondly, thank you for the warning but one thing I do very well is have my facts straight. You can take that to the bank. Glenn
