I don't know the answer to your question, but I found BGP compelling enough today to buy a couple of hundred shares. It's one of my favorite stores, and the one near here (Austin, Tx.) always seems crowded. JMHO.

Bill Miller, a very respected analyst from Legg Mason, mentioned Borders as an internet play in today's TheStreet.com... ...Companies Miller doesn't own that he thinks could benefit from stronger Internet positions include Borders Group (BGP:NYSE) The book and music retailer is selling its merchandise online as well as in malls but still is trading at just 18 times 1998 earnings, well below the S&P 500's 26.6 times earnings for the same period. "Borders is statistically a cheap stock with a good business," says Miller. Hopefully this will give the stock some attention that it needs. Regards, DCB
