MSFT consistently reports its investment gains or losses on its Income statement as they are recognized according to GAAP accounting. You are being deceitful again when saying they don't and you denying that "MSFT chooses to use one rule for when it has "gains" and another rule when it has "losses", ." by hiding behind GAAP, doesn't make it any less true...... and this is perfecly legal to do Under GAAP as i said many times......... it doesn't make this quote below any less true... "the shame in corporate accounting is not in what is illegal.... but what is done that IS legal that is the real shame in corporate accounting" you trying to make this situation the same sound bite as MSFT uses, doesn't change the situation at all just because GAAP is flawed, doesn't make it the best way to deal with your shareholders.......... it still is costing you shareholders a dear price... wake up before it is too late..... jon.
