Off topic, <Methinks the boys from Redmond are sandbagging to get Ms. Reno off their case.>

Speaking of Reno vs. Gates, you should see this political cartoon:

OT RE: "Methinks the boys from Redmond are sandbagging to get Ms. Reno off their case."

Hi Harry,

The supposed sandbagging resulted in an immediate announcement of equity % loss (via 2x ESO). I doubt they were intentionally sandbagging.

The DOJ's intentional leak resulted in a significant shaving of market cap which was intended to threaten (or to bring) MS to their knees and preempt.

RE: "the boys in Redmond:

and girls. : ) Microsoft is fabulous for employing and promoting talented women. The head of investor relations is a woman who has been there for nearly a decade (I think 1992?).
