Johnd, I got more profits from the July95s than expected--i waited til it hit 98.5 before selling---unfortunately i did not know about the Bristol verdict or i would have waited right til the end or even excercised some contracts. Resisted the temptation sell my leaps calls and stock--glad that i did not do something that stupid (reminds me of the "stupid" Bob commercial--by IBM <g>). I am looking at 105 at least on Monday for me to start profit taking on leaps options. No way will i sell my shares---it is my only large holding. I don't have any significant positions in other stocks as i am getting ready for a market correction. 60% in MSFT (combined effect of leaps and shares) and 25% in cash is what i have done. Hope to reduce to 30 to 40% MSFT (shares only). I hope i can deal with having such a "small" future position in MSFT.<g>
