your link on merger of borders with barnes and nobles shows nothing.......cannot get any news from it...

this theory been getting kicked around for more than 10 months from what i see on the web, but that just means to me that it's not at all likely to suddenly pop out with an official press release... we'll see some new rumors long before an actual merger happens.
