Why there is chance for a blowout Q, like the one that surpirsed me last Q: (1) PC market in all geographics segments is on high cylinder Look at projection on asia below. computerworld.com (2) Y2K spending is benefiting MSFT and continuing to this Q. Mostly s/w upgrades that brings upgrade dollars to MSFT (3) AMD - Intel price war and free PC is a big boon. US households are doubling or tripling per household PC usage. I now have 6 PCs. 3 laptops, 1 HP Pavilion, 1 Samsung, 1 Leading edge (old). (4) Microsoft does extra well when being pushed to the wall on other fronts like image (DOJ), SUN boasting about revenue acceleration of revenues etc.. I don't want to miss another blowout Q. I am looking for min 73% growth in EPS or 87c /share. That would put the company at 2.72 in trailing EPS and considering wall street gives 75 PE, I see 202+ by April. johnd
