Anybody know where to get MSFT put warrants? According to their 10Ks MSFT sells a whole bunch of put warrants (1-4 year maturities) to help defray the cost of their stock buybacks for the employee options. It's a dangerous strategy, but as long as a stock can go up forever, there's no downside ;-)

From the September 10Q, there were 23 million warrants outstanding, with strike prices between 123 - 129, and expirations between 1998 and 2001. Are these warrants traded on any exchange?
