Frank,

FOr what it's worth I agree with you. I feel we have a right to be incensed with Ballmers boneheaded comments. Someone here pointed out that this was a caluculated move...which could be the fact. Microsoft is very shrewd. However, that being said, this type of activity seems to be actionable. Someone with that kind of power and stature should not be able to make off-handed comments like this that set the financial system on edge. At the same time, where do you draw the line. We have this little nagging first amendment problem.

All in all, a little sell-off isn't a bad thing. It's a great buying opportunity..one we all should have been expecting would come. Don't worry. The effect of Ballmers idiotic comment will be washed away in short order.
