MSFT trivia. 22 Billion dollars is a stack of $100 bills 43 miles high. Source is WSJ
"That's fine with Microsoft: It's got cash. In fact, at the end of March, it had $22 billion of it. To offer a little perspective, that much money works out to a 43-mile-high stack of bills -- and not $1 bills, but the ones with Ben Franklin on them."

Bill and the gang have finally started to spend a few miles of the majic green stuff.. I trust their judgement.
Hat's off to John Dowd and Sir Drake for some great post's.
