More I look at other companies, the more I love MSFT. - Take netscape & AOL. - NSCP - Netscape - is being taken over by AOL. - Netscape has 95 mill shares o/s; and is losing money. For all of '97, they lost $39 mill. For first 10 months of '98, they're losing $60 mill. - AOL, for the latest quarter, did $.22/share on 561 mill shares fully dilluted basis. - given the all-out war that's going to take place for internet subscribers, I think AOL suffers & their thin profits take a hit. Especially when you consider they charge the most for a commodity service. - Having said all that, AOL is at $150; NCSP is at $95; and MSFT is at $93. - yet in '99, MSFT should do about $1.40+ per share - which gives it one of the lowest p/e's for the gorilla-type companies.

- not to beat a dead horse... - but on the MSFT vs. AOL... - per Zacks: - AOL is supposed to do $.51 for next fiscal year - MSFT is supposed to do $1.57 - theoretically, MSFT should trade for 3X the price of AOL; or 150 X 3; or $450/share.
