Pure wishful thinking ! MSFT has a unique product and control 90% percent of its market. YHOO definitely does not. Even MSFT has never been traded at the insane level compared with YHOO. Anybody buying YHOO at the current price will lose money for sure for the next couple of weeks to months.

OK, High speed. I leave you with one word. The "C" word. Competition. Think of ease of entry into the various markets we mentioned as compared to entering the portal market. Think of product development, infrastructure, employment and think of how that plays into all of the above. "If" there's money to be made in the portal business (really hasn't happened yet has it?) look out for competition. snap.com lycos.com excite.com netscape.com Just a sampling so far.
