Fred,

>>He goes after real scams not "IBM as a scam" and makes good money at it.<<

I can top "IBM as a scam" even though I agree with Mike that IBM is mostly financial engineering.

I think Microsoft is a "scam company", albeit a great one.

If you subtract out the value (after tax) of the average number of options they grant annually and further subtract out the income they generate from selling put warrants the PE is triple digits.

Bill Gates is not the richest man in America. Warren Buffett is. Bill, Forbes, and the public just don't know how to count. <g>
