Marion, I hadn't read your post till now.

F&V will exist - yes. They will be still into cars. The same rut, the same competition....

My other question - you chose not to answer it at all. You confused the issue by a lot of other stuff. IF YHOO were the industry leader - what would it be doing by the end of 10 years ?

<<<It's not the Internet at all. >>>
No its not. But to many small people out there, including my 9 year old, YHOO represents internet. It is the roadmap to internet. The stepping stone to internet. It is to people what universities are to intellect. Of course most don't stay in the Uni forever. But its always there to help and educate, it is part of your success and confidence....it will always be there, it is needed there.

<<<yet their stock is already valued at more than Motorola or Xerox>>
Again, you are mixing the issues here. I am talking about the company. If the company is successful, the stock price will find its position in the world. I'm in love with the concept, the company, the management - lets talk about the vision......

And you didn't answer my question about positive criticism. I deal with positives - I have been into management stuff since the age of 26 (and that was some time ago), and I'm conditioned to think in positive terms. the negatives intimidate me, trouble me. So WHAT can YHOO do to stay at the top. Or are you saying it can NEVER be there, surely it did something extraordinary to reach there. As a business savvy person, I'd like your opinion on what should it do to remain at the top or what is it not doing to remain at the top ?

Lets not discuss how companies can duplicate YHOO in a jiffy. I don't fancy being a parrot, neither do you I'm sure.
