" My question, why will COOL sell more computer stuff than all the other web sites that sell computer stuff??"

1. AOL...if you are on AOL, and ALOT of people are, if you want to shop for a computer online and you type the word COMPUTER and SHOPPING...it will take you to the COOL site...this is a BIG advantage over other online computer sites.

2. The recent formation of the shopperconnection.com site, which links 8 different online retailers includes COOL, and CDNow...CDNow reported today that they are getting 11 times as many visitors on their sites, and 3 times an many sales since the formation of shopperconnection.com....CDNow links the user to COOL. If CDNow is reporting such an increase you can bet COOL is seeing a similar increase.

3. The new COOL TV commercials have become quite eyecatching...I know a couple of people already who have seen it and they tell me they went to the site immediately after seeing the commercial because it was so funny....The commercial shows a gerbil being fired out of a canon and into the O in Outpost...

4. New print ads are appearing in a numerous newspapers and magazines that will also drive people to the site.

5. Management has increased sales each quarter by a large percentage, while not spending much to do so (as evident by their $65 million IPO still mostly intact).

All in all I believe COOL will be one of the internet stocks that will emerge as a leader and we will see the stock perform as a leader as well....Long on COOL....$100 by January.
