So many questions - so little time. And so few answers. The reason why no one questions the BS postings is because everyone can see them for what they are. Even responding to them would be taking them too seriously. You, however, are interesting. You are quite adamant on expressing a strong negative opinion to its investors. Yet by your own admission you have no financial interest in MSFT's future one way or another. Your motives are questioned, because no one can figure out what your motive is in the first place. Are you saying we should ignore your posts just like we ignore the "evil empire rules" posts? A few things I don't recall seeing you address, so I'll repeat them: You called MSFT a "cult stock". What exactly does that mean? That sounds vaguely like a penny-stock term. Are you, as Janis suggests, applying penny-stock thinking to the company with the second-largest market cap in the world? The intersection between the people who would invest in Micro Minerals and Microsoft is vanishingly small. There is a reason for that. As for your arguments, it is hardly that they are negative in themselves. But it is also because they are largely the same arguments that have been thrown in Mr. Softee's face the past ten years. Using perjoratives like "MSFT-Lemming" and "dumb monkeys" doesn't win you many friends, either. One other thing: I may have missed it, but I don't recall seeing you putting any sort of numbers on the table regarding MSFT. All I got was "in the crapper" or somesuch. Can we possibly peg you down on a long-term price target? What do you see MSFT dropping to, say, by Jan 2000 (adjust the time frame as you wish)? Good luck in whatever it is you actually are invested in.
