<<Yes it did. Yahoo got a commission on every account opened.>>

Okay.... I should rephrase that "it didn't generate any significant revenue for Yahoo".
I am sure Yahoo may have some vending machines in their employee lounges and they may get a commission on that too, but we are talking about a company with over a 30 billion dollar market cap. Yahoo's over all revenues are not that significant now, so if THEY SAY the revenues from e-commerce have not been significant to date, then we are really talking INSIGNIFICANT.

William,

Did YHOO lie in their 10Q? I would think they would want to put forth the facts and place it in a positive way.
