MGM MIRAGE ONLINE CASINO SET TO ROLL
MGM Mirage Inc. is expected to launch its online casino next month at http://www.mgmmirageonline.co.uk/mgmonline.htm (http://www.mgmmirageonline.co.uk/mgmonline.htm). The operations are based in the United Kingdom, on the Isle of Man. Federal law prohibits Americans from gambling online, so MGM Mirage Online plans to use a number of technologies to prevent U.S. residents from using the service, including confirming where Internet customers physically are located. "We see billions of dollars being made out there (among the 2,000 e-casinos now operating)," said Bill Hornbuckle, president of the MGM division. He told the New York Times that MGM Mirage (MGG), one of the leading U.S. casino operators, wants to be ready "if and when this comes" to the United States.
