Geez Robert.... Cut us some slack with this tirade over MSFT.

Pray that they break up the company and the stock gets trounced.

Then buy up the stock on the cheap.

The various parts of MSFT are probably worth more than the current value, believe it or not.

John Rockefeller was made fantastically wealthy after Standard Oil was broken up. He received an equal stake (25%) in each of the 11 off-shoots. The value of those 11 companies far exceeded the value that Standard could ever have achieved.

Regards,

Ron

Who has been less rewarded than the precious metals miner or their investor?
