Why didn't anybody on this thread reference Google's income and profits? Though I am a naiif to Wall Street Finance lingo, the Yahoo site shows Google making a 1.73 billion gross profit and a 3.79 billion income. That seems pretty good to me, but it pales in comparison to Time-Warner's stats. Considering the growth potential of the Internet market, Google stock might be a reasonable risk, but I don't know how to evaluate that myself.

Forget Google; I'm investing in Sendrax. They've got some new kind of technique for televising opera. Some sort of electronic thingy.

Let's get this straight. Time Warner is makes $13 billion more in profit than Google but Google is worth more?
