I have been following the thread on the deferred earnings. The company is known for its very conservative accounting procedures, coming straight from Gates. It's one of the things that makes it so beloved by Wall Street. They obviously want to do all they can to keep the stock price down, they don't want a huge crash after too many strictly "momentum" players run it up. If someone on this thread is really conversant with employee stock options and stock buy backs, I would like to hear what you have to say about their efforts to keep the stock down in relation to those programs.
