>>You do make one good point about the internet<< and that point is that one will use the net if it is less expensive to do so. oh, and less expensive than other net alternatives - each only 3 or 4 mouse clicks away from evaluating... no gold mine here...

he he. You and Mike almost sound like two Dell bulls who just heard some disparaging remarks about their beloved stock!<g>. MB said the internet will not have a big impact. I said internet will have a huge impact. It will. I did not say and am not saying the internet related companies (Yahoo, Geocities, Lycos, Amazon, yada yada)) are worth their ridiculous stock valuations. They aren't. And I clearly stated that I have no idea how they will make any money. Again, I was talking about the impact of the internet itself and not the value and profitability of the hyped portals, search engines, etc. Many of the changes will have nothing to do with e-commerce.
