RE: Buyout of Broadcast.com by Yahoo Broadcast.com being bought by Yahoo for 4 BILLION? Did you ever look at their website? ha ha ha ha lol lol broadcast.com Site Highlights: Some links, and a few banner adds. The big draw seems to be the auction site. Auction Site Highlights: 32 Beanie Babies 8 Sports Memorabilia (3 of which are 1984 Dave Magadan Baseball cards) 1 1990 Daihatsu Charade SX (I sh*t you not!) We are looking at the scam of the century here. As a computer programmer, I will submit to you I could build this whole site in 2 hours (except for the auction site, which might take a couple of days to figur out). Just remember what this site really consists of when CNBS starts flogging this deal like it's a major merger!

Mike: I can't believe Abby Cohen can be this stupid! She actually used the post-split price and pre-split EPS valuation when she commented on Dell. exchange2000.com <<1) Abby Cohen NYT comment - I spoke with an embarassed Goldman analyst who admitted that Abby's comment regarding DELL's valuation relative to the market was INACCURATE! She used the then-current price (post-split) and an EPS estimate which had not been adjusted for the split -- THE VALUATION SHE WAS USING WAS ONLY HALF THE ACTUAL VALUATION (about 26x v. 52x FY00 Est EPS)! If you don't believe me, do the math yourself. The analyst said not to expect a retraction. Abby IS a BULL on DELL and DELL is on GS's Recommended List. I also tried to call the NYT to ask them to clarify, but callers get routed thru a message maze and never get to talk to anyone. >>
