The tobacco companies had many a rally I rate this stock a hold currently (at least that's what I'm doing, no buy but didn't sell). The tobacco company analagy is exactly what I was thinking. I held RJR Nabisco through much of their troubles, and once a bunch of litigation gets started it becomes a lot tougher for a company to focus. I think Microsoft has better managagement than RJR (at least since Gerstner left) but they may find themselves with a lot of distractions. For now I'll just watch and wait. TP
