Have you calculated what the AOL market cap would be under your scenario ?

You sound like the guys on the Dell thread that expect their 100 shares to make them a millionaire in five years. If you follow your scenario of two additional stock splits, followed by one each year for five years, that would put AOL's float at 64 BILLION shares. If it was selling for 50 bucks a share (my guess), that is a market cap north of 3 TRILLION dollars. Forget it.
