Technology Stocks : How high will Microsoft fly? -- Ignore unavailable to you. Want to Upgrade?

Your post is pinpointing the problem in the PC business. The evolution today is not in the PC or in the OS - it's everywhere else, and nobody cares about new versions of software, they just hate viruses and worms.

And this is where I think the future market is in home PC's: security and trust. People will upgrade in order to get a safer PC, something they can trust. Just like cars - today security is a major sales parameter. And when security and trust becomes a sales parameter - how does Microsoft do? In Europe it's not good.

<< I'd rather play a game of real golf than one online. >>

Well, I certainly can't disagree with that! My golf buddies are going to wonder how I know the yardages and the slope of the greens so well at Chateau Whistler next time we play. We make a run to Whistler to play the top courses every year or two, and now I've played them in my spare time at home to get ready. <g>
