Somewhat OT to Bretsky MSFT vs PFE I sold the last of my PFE < 1 hr. after they reported their last earnings at 137. I then bought more MSFT. My money still remains with MSFT for the long term. It just seems to have so much more potential. I also just like tech more than pharmacies. Unless Pfizer really gets creamed here,high 70s or low 80s I won't go back. One thing that really turned me off to PFE was the way they marketed Viagra,what a bunch of bozos.
Iv'e seen MSFT PE higher and lower,at about 60 now seems very reasonable to me. Anytime MSFT approaches a 20% pullback I buy as much as I can afford,lately with 2002 LEAPS. I frequently visit this site to refresh my memory that these guys are EVERYWHERE. Good luck.http://biz.yahoo.com/n/m/msft.html

A German court sentenced an American man to four years in prison without probation on Tuesday for importing illegally copied MICROSOFT CORP computer programs. It was the first time Germany has issued a prison sentence in a crime involving software piracy, Microsoft said. (Reuters 01:45 PM ET 06/15/99)

Microsoft PE on Fridays

As you can see, the PE's have been increasing over the years. You'll need to load this into a spreadsheet and look at the period which interests you.

Cheers, PW.
