johnd, I see little downside risk from here with Ballmer granting the options at the price he did. MSFT obviously sees value in their own stock at this price. However, I think MSFT is dead money in the near term relative to the NAZ. Could creep up to 80 or so. Needs some good news for a change to catch fire.

I've never seen a quality stock suffer from so much bad news. Most of it is smoke and mirrors, but perception is everything. I'm still holding most of my position, but I did sell some recently to fund an NTAP purchase.

Ironically, the only positive thing about all this is all the bad news and mudslinging. I haven't visited this thread for a while, and I was dismayed to read all the fighting going on here. The negative comments I've seen on this thread today are more indicative of a bottom having being reached than anything else. There always have been MSFT naysayers, and they've always been a little poorer than the rest of us.
