<<MSFT is so involved in the net and e-commerce that you'd better do your homework. I like MSFT more than AOL in 10 years. MSFT is about to become a whole new company.....>>

What is the membership of MSN? IE makes them a player in the Internet. But the eyeballs for MSN are not there.

<<....MSFT is fast buying into cable in the US and overseas....>>
If cable is going to be the medium of choice for the Internet, then it is going to become a "open medium". Remember, ATT and Baby Bells in telecoms.

<<....MSFT will be an internet e-commerce leader.>>
Yes, Microsoft is nibbling at the e-commerce door with hopes of becoming a leader and trying to dethrone the established ones such as AMZN, EBAY, AOL, IBM etc. and many others.

AND A LOT WILL DEPEND WHAT HAPPENS TO MSFT POST DOJ.
