Bo Le -- all the more reason for ALU to move aggressively with IPO -- also remember DBCC shareholders retained just 35% of MarketWatch -- currently as you point out ALU shareholders own 82% of F*.com. DBCC and MarketWatch had CBS owning a bunch -- we got the Jacobs family -- and the only way the Jacobs family gets made whole is if ALU IPO's F*.com -- you still have to look at the strong fundamentals of this company if F*.com is not dragging its books -- just like with NAVR there will be many opportunities to buy and sell ALU prior to IPO but I think the 11 to 13 range will be the bottom of the buy area.

FWIW I bought more at 12 today. I agree with Tom's view. the IPO is in the Jacob's family best interest and if one does the math, even at their rate of purchase thenew company will be worth $20 million. I think more likely it will price at far more that ALU market cap right now. now.

Best,
