Where does Register.com have a cap of half a $billion? And how much did they pay for Afternic. Oh yeah [atnewyork.com], $48 million. Tee hee. Using those figures one could easily be worth half a $billion. Of course we'll see changes at NSI. Look at Pacific Crossing which Pivotal took over from the bankrupt Global Crossing. The buzzards are circling. What I find ironic (read terminally stupid dotcomitis) is that VeriSign/NSI fought so hard against splitting their registry/registrar businesses when they would have been far better off to have cut it loose back then. -g

There's a lot of "I told you so" going around right now. I must admit, I've been saying it a lot, lately, too (and feeling uncharacteristically guilty about it).

You're quite right. Register.com doesn't have a market cap of a half billion dollars. It's around $200 million, still more than Network Solutions is apparently worth (or sold for, that is).

I must've been reflecting on the "bubble" days of 2000. Ah, that was a crazy time.
Cheers,
