Dueling Fools Duel Flashback
AOL

You've Got Duel? Back in February, shortly after the company was found on bended knee at Time Warner's (NYSE: TWX) place, we took a closer look at America Online (NYSE: AOL).

Bill Barker was optimistic about the deal, while Paul Larson was hoping the nuptials would be annulled. Out Voting Fools sided with our bull. Unfortunately, the shares gave back 11% of their value in the six months that followed.

Victory? Paul. Congrats.
