John, I don't know anything about internet stocks so I just pulled somes names. I bought AOL (174), LYCOS (129), XOOM (58), (along with Dell and CSCO). I am just hoping a big buying frenzy among some mutual funds will push these up. (I tried to get Globe.com---could not get a fill at my price so I bought Xoom instead--its all the same to me). Looks like most people like me missed out on the net stock moves but I am willing to take some risks with them for a very short period of time. I honestly don't like their future. However this consolodation (like Geocities and Yahoo) may make for some short term gains. Then again--maybe we will see a crash.---Who knows. I have a high tolerance for risk and consider net stocks to be less risky than some I options that I had in the past. I am not recommending that anyone buy internet stocks. Best of luck if you decide to take a chance.
