MargaretM ... VRIO News seems pretty good I've been in big.

Verio CEO Says Company May Consider Selling Itself,
WSJ Reports
Englewood, Colorado, March 18 (Bloomberg) -- Verio Inc. Chief Executive Justin L. Jaschke said the largest host of corporate Web sites may consider selling itself to another company, though for now it's focused on integrating the dozens of companies its acquired, the Wall Street Journal reported. Verio, which hosts more than 160,000 Web sites, may also acquire more companies. While analysts don't expect the company to break even until the fourth quarter of this year or the first quarter of next, Credit Suisse First Boston analyst Kristen Koh told the Journal that she expects ''other potential partners to knock on their door.''

Verio said earlier this month that it will provide exclusive business Web-page hosting for America Online Inc., and will pay AOL at least $42.5 million and share future revenue.
