Harmon: AOL = Gorilla. internetnews.com Consolidation looks like it's creating a mega-power to battle Microsoft. Our belief is that AOL could be the real "next Microsoft" as it works across its AOL online, AOL.com, ICQ instant messaging, and completes its pending merger with Netscape. AOL's revenue is growing into the gorilla stage and no other Internet company (except Cisco) comes close.

Actually..... Msft could...be the "Next AOL"... has the cash to buy the "marketing talent"...which is what it would take...(remove geekcontrol off msn properties...and put in some splash/dash) certainly gave it a shot...with MSN....and has a ton of "Internet power" with its sites.... I hold both equities....and amazingly enough...MSFT & AOL keep vying for the #1 position in my little basket of eggs...as their values slide up and down... not putting down AOL...I am a serious AOL BULL...just some fodder for the brain trust here...... smile...Mary
