WASHINGTON, June 2 (Reuters) - The American Red Cross plans to sell 5,000 common shares of Microsoft Corp. MSFT , valued at more than $313,000, which the disaster relief agency received as a donation.

The shares were donated in April and the Red Cross filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission to sell them at the end of May.

As a MSFT shareholder, it feels like I been donating regularly to the Red Cross since March 2000!

Hey, could *you tell me what a 'task bar' is?

It's this neat little feature which is part of Windows, that makes the user experience more user friendly for users who are not computer literate such as myself. I take it however that if the Govt. had their way awhile back, the task bar would be a separate program that would be available to the consumer, with a separate & higher price. It's comforting to know that the geniuses at the DOJ are meddling in such a dynamic industry, looking out for the consumer.
