Ed, You are the only one to disagree with "Sir Francis Drake" so far. I just can't look that far into the future to imagine numbers like that. I am more interested in the next 4 months.
If growth rates slow down, we may see a lot of mergers among the big tech stocks--which would push stock prices and profits up. A 1 trillion dollar company is not out of the question. It may or may not be Microsoft. I am guessing MSFT will get there in 2 years.

A key indicator for MSFT's growth will be how many equity puts the company sells this July (i think that is the time these get issued but I don't have any confirmation). Of course their strategy is to never let these get excercised and they have been. If this activity remains strong this year---we could 1 trillion by this time next year!!
