<Time will tell I suppose, but why would anybody pay over $15,000,000,000 for a company that could be recreated for well under $1,000,000,000? > I must respectfully disagree. You cannot create another YHOO simply <g> for a billion dollars. It is hard to put a price on name recognition which YHOO surely has. Also, based on what I've read/seen in YHOO's management (albeit minimal); the company is very well run by people that remind me of MSFT. For some that may not necessarily be a plus but to me it is. I think any great company needs visionaries at the helm. YHOO is still in its infancy compared to where it will be 10 years from now. jmo
