sheez...now ole wild willie wants a piece of NAS.....man, is there anything in the world this man does not want to control and be number 1 in.....the sad thing is, rather then seeing msft as an innovative company that would be hugely sucessful, I instead thought bill to be monopolistic and their software to be junk...early in the game, that is....so I never bought mr. softie...almost did, very early in the game....decided not to....now msft owns the world......I must admitt...as an investor, I have seen msft come in to a sector, in which I own stock in another company in that sector....inevitably, it always hurts the stock price and I always get a queasy feeling of owning a stock that has to go head to head with "mr. I can lose billions just to put you out of business, and then I have total control"....very scary, because msft can do just that.....pick any sector....they could come in, lose their a$$ on purpose, just to grab the majority of the business and drive the competition away, and then they own the sector and can do what they want......and I dont want here about these people wont let them do this, or that...hogwash...they are letting msft own the world and doing nothing about it, and they will continue to do just that......bill gates can have anything he wants, and thats pretty much a fact....now he wants the NAS sector.......that is not a good thing for other nas players, nor the storage sector in general, imo.....
