I think its possible only aol will be around and the telco's would like to change that story. I can't comment on Yahoo. I really never understood that stock. Amazon is not the only bookseller on the planet. I like Borders. Others here like Barnes and Noble. They could rapidly pose serious a serious challenge to amazon, and poof, they all are 50 dollars. Too bad for the amazon holders. Glenn

"If you really believe that Amazon is worth that much, more than any other retailer other than WalMart or Dayton Hudson, then any company on the internet that sells anything at all is worth at least a few bucks!" I for one don't believe it. What I do believe is that the level of competition will be incredible. Although the current net retailers seem to have the upper hand in internet sales, they will be heavily challenged on their own playing field by the major, big name players in their field. Should be interesting to watch. Have a great year, DW
