...with 150 employees and real revenue, has a good chance of launching a successful offering. Adult companies have gone public before--Playboy Enterprises in 1993 and New Frontier Media last year--but none of them, served up amid a frenzied IPO market, have been pure Internet plays. (One other, much less endowed company, efox.net Inc., has registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission for an IPO.)
