To have excellent economic prospects, you have to have figured out how to make money. With the notable exception of having figured out how to push its market cap to $38 bil, YHOO hasn't remotely addressed that issue yet. I think you could find less profitable Internet companies. Yahoo made $25.6M in FY98 on a net profit margin of 12.5%. The net margin increased to ~25% in Q4. Also, gross margins of 88% for Q4 begin to address profitability for the future. Randy
