The word is that the conference is NOT about the GE deal.

It almost doesn't matter what it is about, MSFT is headed higher. The charts have spoken.

However, I just love thinking about the Tech Bear know it alls...they smile knowingly and talk in low hushed tones when the NAZ goes down for one day or so. Why they should think the NAZ only goes up, I do not know. They think finally, after ten years of being wrong the techs are going to the penalty box, to purgatory, anywhere but up. Then the NAZ comes back and slaps them up side the head again <ggg>!

Regards,

john, about msn connectivity--I tried to switch my isp from aol to msn but, since is having serious difficulty providing a connection, I have had to continue aol service...i have not been able to connect to msn for 5 days in a row, now. For three days msn tech support said my problems must be due to modem or software error on my side. Then, after I connect via a long distance (pay) line and after i find all local connect phone numbers are busy when I call by phone (without modem), tech support admits that there must be a server problem in my area. They seem surprised that their system check shows the lines are working fine (how could they not know the servers are overloaded and busy?).

Well, I was on aol a few years ago when Case jammed the Xmas blitz signup down our throats and aol members could not connect. The result was a legal settlement for aol members. This will also happen to msft. Just another thing to factor in when determining msft investment value. I do not have a position in the stock. I am very irritated by msn's inability to provide service, however. Hard to believe they are worse than aol.
