CC, PC sales, in dollars, are very soft. In units, they are still positive, so be careful on shorting the gun runners. I am thinking that MSFT becomes the next Philip Morris, with lawsuits out the wazoo and a PE ratio in single digits. Or is that hoping? True, they have a sickening PR scam running on tv with Bill Gates telling America how wonderful it is that his co. stole everyone else's research and put them out of business and how it will do less of that great stuff in the future. But it reminds me of the Chevron ad where this huge polluter helps baby turtles find the sea (where the oil slicks will kill them <g>) and where MO, again, tells everyone how wonderful their employees are and they really arean't so bad once you get over that assisted suicide killing of people crap. <g> I am avoiding Enron Field until the urinals become less of a splash park. Gross, but sadly, true. I know, I shouldn't be so finicky. But there are some natural products I don't want on my clothes. <g>
