The question and my worry is, does this mean we will have to
spend another $6 million on AOL, another $3 million on Excite,
another $4 million on Lycos, another $2 on Mindspring, ..... ?


No need to worry. To get this amount of money they would need to return to the market at current price 0.5 Mln of shares out of 4.7 mln that they bought at $5.75 in October. If it's only money, it would be a great deal.
These expenses wouldn't affect quarterly results significantly as R&D and capital expenses can be appreciated over a long period of time.
