Bill Writes Microsoft's New 'Road Ahead'

Around midday today the rumor began to spread on the Street that most of the brutal selling on Microsoft (MSFT:Nasdaq) this morning was past, and that after U.S. District Judge Thomas Penfield Jackson's release of his Conclusions of Law this afternoon at 5 p.m. EDT, we'll see buyers coming in in afterhours trading to re-establish Microsoft positions at the lower prices delivered by today's massacre.

I wouldn't be surprised. If you take the long-term view on Microsoft -- whole or split -- you've gotta think this one is going back up, and up a lot. With assets like Windows and Office, plus an unparalleled marketing machine, Microsoft is still a giant, if a humbled one, today. And no matter how much the munchkins (think Lilliputians) try to tie the giant down (think Gulliver), he will still roar.

If perhaps, shortly, in a much higher-pitched voice.

Recruitment is my business, and I don't think it will have an effect on recruitment, retention, or morale....It's been a bit since I've worked with MSFT, but people always want to work for companies who value their services....be it MSFT, or any other company!
