>>Just tell me in terms of 1990 money, how much would Wright brothers IPO have opened at? Discount it right back.....<< Sorry, I'm not sure I understand this question or it's relevance. The Wright Brothers didn't go public. Had they gone public, who knows if they would have succeeded. Airplanes have succeeded but there was no guarantee that they would. Again, I don't believe they had any monopoly on building airplanes and yahoo certainly has no monopoly on portals. And bottom line they are still not making any significant money with nothing in sight on that account.
