<While I get temporarily exhilerated on stock surges, YTD, the stock is up 100% while revenues have grown about 28% and EPS has grown about 36%. I worry when the stock moves much faster than revenues and EPS growth curves.> You failed to take into consideration that R&D and marketing are up, as well as deferred revenues and M&A. Little bit and pieces that are not truly administrative expenses chip away at the earnings and can caused one to be mislead in terms of MSFT's true economic earnings growth.
