well jc jaros has his own trip... i've definitely had my run-ins with him... but he's not such a bad guy, all in all, even with his blindness wrt to sunw's (and the market's) future.

in my opinion what is worse than the gloating on boards like this is talking to people face to face, or going through years as an employee at msft and saying to yourself, 'this stock is a pos' while 98% of the other employees there are starry-eyed minions with no concept of p/e or p/b ratios, for starters..

the few of us who cashed out were ridiculed i can assure you... i was 3 years early... looking now though i'm glad i was never starry-eyed, because otherwise today i might be mortgaged up the yingyang with underwater options like some of those 'true believers' are finding themselves now.

being free from msft, even without any money... has its own kind of sweetness, especially in light of the way things have gone this year and the way things are going to ultimately go... 'b-b-b-b-baby you just ain't seen nothin' yet'
