From the enemy of my enemy Dept. AOL to stick with Google and drop talks with Microsoft

ZDNet:

Google may pay $1 billion for a 5 percent stake in America Online as part of an exclusive deal with Time Warner that would strengthen ties with the search giant instead of dumping Google for Microsoft.

If 1 Billion = 5% of AOL and my math is corrrect, that would mean AOL is worth $20 BILLION ! I find that way to high.


Full Disclosure: My math is often wrong.
