A Google IPO has been one of the most eagerly anticipated events on Wall Street and in Silicon Valley since the dotcom bust. Though only five years old, the search-engine company has avoided the traps that caught many early dotcom companies.

"It will be worth $15bn-$25bn," said one person who has been involved in the process. "This has never happened before."

Other "hot" IPOs, from Apple Computer in 1980 to Netscape in 1995, have generally involved unprofitable companies, this person said. Google, by contrast, is highly profitable and has grown into a large global business.

Do you remember Palo Alto, Calif. -- June 7, 1999?

Now the question will be "who will they BUY ?"

...and will Matt will stop posting in public fora

I have no idea. I'm from outside the US, but won't buy Google stocks. I don't think it will be a success for investors in the long run.

Of course if I were one of the owners of Google, I would support the IPO now too. In my opinion Google can't get a lot more popular than it is now, so for the owners now it's the best time to make a lot of money with this IPO. They're going to be rich!

It looks like Google is trying to be a little more realistic. The estimated price now is between 85.00 and 95.00 a share. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/5743246/

What I thought they should of done was given us who advertise with them and who also are affiliates of adsense a chance to grab some stocks at a certain price
