Joe, I'm also one that looks at PSR's, but in this type of market, what's the point? I own Boeing - it can be considered a high tech manufacturer, and it has a PSR of less than one. Boeing is a monopoly in this country, with a very high barrier to entry into it's business. Yes, it's been affected by management problems and Asia, but all that aside, please explain to me using all these ratios why Yahoo has a market cap VERY CLOSE to that of Boeing! We are comparing a company with thousands of highly skilled employees producing a product critical to the United States with a company that has a bunch of yahoos sitting around creating web pages/portals!!! <ggg> Best regards, John
