Chaz -- MSFT closed Friday with a market-cap of 368B...if it grew at that prescribed rate, it would have a market-cap of $12,058,624,000,000,000 (is that 12 zillion?)...which is about 860 X the current value of every stock listed on the NASDAQ and NYSE. That means that the NASDAQ/NYSE market-cap would have to expand at roughly a 19% annual clip, and MSFT would have to buy EVERY listed company over that 40 year time-span to achieve that value. So I think that MSFT dream may be just a titch too optimistic -- not unlike hunting Moby Dick in a row boat armed with nothing more than a dinner fork and a jar of tartar sauce (g). "the dodger" PS -- that's not to say that MSFT isn't a great company with a good future, and a probably a bit oversold right now.
