This is a myth soon to be cleared up............ Last week, America Online (AOL) Inc., the world's largest Internet services provider with 14 million subscribers< The calculation is as follows..... AOL has 14M subscribers + Netscape has 16M users ---------------------- ='s AOL has 30M....> ...............potential multi hitting users/subscribers per day. That will = some BIG ecommerce revenues. Anyone know how the up coming 30 million hits compare to Yahoo's hit count?

Wow I love this company. Lets think about this. If the retail market is 3.5 trillion. Lets say that most people start shopping over the internet. I mean why go out if you can have it delivered. So if AOL is the big guy who soaks up 85% of the market for the next 2 trilion that is bought online. So if AOL has sales of about 1.7 trillion. What woould the stock price be relative to todays price. I mean look at INTC or MSFT they own about 90% of the total market for that sector. The do pretty good and those sectors are so tiny compaired to this one.
