Bottom line, most important post you'll read all this year about MSFT.... here is the Bottom line as per Alan Greenspan, and the international accounting brd, and soon after the international accounting brd adopts these rules....the US accounting Brd will.... "Employee Stock options will be expensed, like it or not" that means MSFT will have less earnings by 30% by the time these rules take full effect, (if MSFT keeps issuing options like bubbles in a bubble bath)..... if MSFT stops issuing as many options, Cash flow will dry up by a third, because this is where they got a lot of their cash flow from.... a catch 22.... MSFT is in a lose lose situation.... as i said many months ago they would be in......... they are guaranteed to lose out on these false earnings now..... i challenge you all to go look at where MSFT's Cash flow is really coming from....... jon.
