Microsoft is cheap by several measures.

I love Oracle's release today which tries to force people to buy their software and services. Oracles big advantage boils down to a simple data cache?!? I heard Microsoft's latest database has other, more complex and valuable benefits.

Perhaps people see through this scheme, and this explains the Oracle selloff today.

"CA" (Computer Associates) halted--may be the culprit for the market turn today.

The market didn't used to have these kinds of strong reactions to leaks of earnings warnings. Computer Associates has warned several times in the past!

Here is the "IBM or Microsoft warning" rumored about! Not that, but instead yet another stupid CA warning! Geez. When Microsoft, IBM, etc. start selling off on the latest Computer Associates (CA)warning, I think the market is bottoming out! Gawd, a huge selloff in all the software companies due to this! What a joke.
