A pe ratio goes out the window when stocks start seeing 300% revenue growth. This is not to say that yahoo is worth 400 per share but huge growth + huge potential future growth leads to outlandish pricing. To compare HP to yahoo is like comparing GM to microsoft. Revenue growth is driving this bus...right or wrong and I don't want to commit money to the short side. All logic for the time being is out the window. Join it, skip it or run the risk of being hit by the bus...its quite simple.

Who cares about SALES. Its the EARNINGS thats important

YHOO - .84
HWP - 2.77

if YHOO doubles every year - in 2 years they will beat HWP.

YHOO has very little (IF ANY) liability that will affect HWP (Huge offices, employees, INVENTORY(Obsolence)).

Now you decide. Which is better ??
