<<<Yes, this should basically be a slow and grow story, just accelerated a bit. <g> What I mean is that people should moderate their expectations. This should never ever run like YHOO, say, because after all it is only a retailer that will always have relatively slim margins.>>>

You didn't mention the fact that EGGS has two auction sites in addition to its etail site. Take into consideration growth of the online business at over 100% per year and project out 3 - 5 years and that would spell tremendous profits. IMO this stock could run fast and hard when the next earnings come out and the growth level is confirmed. EGGS has a great namebrand. This stock could easily be over $100 per share before the end of the year.

<<<The story that called this the DELL of the next decade was ridiculous hype, IMO.>>>

Not hype IMO based on the above information. The Internet is still in its infancy and there is such unbelievable potential with the companies who have recognition and are the strongest in their niches. Egghead has this potential. I would encourage everyone to buy Harry S. Dent's book - THE ROARING 2000's. This book talks about how significant the Internet will play in the roles of everyone's life in just a few short years. It is a great book. Harry predicted the boom of the 90's with his first book - THE GREAT BOOM AHEAD.

P.S. Can anyone tell me how to italicize words in a response?
