Okay. Those are all 'organic' and the kind of revenue that the street will be looking for. You hear that more and more these days; "organic growth rate". --- You know, in your list of things, you omitted the one actual hardware item (X-box). In my opinion, MSFT needs h/w rev in a big way. Software rev is drying up industrially. MS hasn't shown any real talent in services yet (to be cometitive with Oracle, etc) so that's a big gamble. There best 'product' shot is client hardware (IMO). --- I was thinking last month while at a friend's house in the city where there were 9 different remote controls and I had neither enough light or my reading glasses at hand, that Microsoft should be in charge of producing all remote controls. The govt should grant MS a monopoly on remote controls and every remote control you pick up has the exact same interface. I mean, assuming you didn;t need to reboot them. <g> -JCJ

It is odd that MSFT is stuck being able to do around 40c for these many quarters: 37c, 35c, 40c, 40cc, 47c, 43, 42c??????
