I remember some story from 10 years ago where some dot.com fad company was supposedly worth more than the main dairy supplier in the UK - whose turnover at the time was £250m. The author couldn't believe that a company that essentially had no chargeable product was worth more than a supplier of staple foodstuffs. Of course, one of those is still in business and the other burst with the bubble.
It all sounds very familiar.
