jonny, Your questions are pointless. Let me show you how it feels to be on the receiving end of such drivel.

Should jonny really keep two sets of books, one the real facts and one the set he posts?

Should jonny really post outright lies or should he just post 1/2 truths?

Should jonny take comments on GAAP and options and make them look as though MSFT is the only company with an issue, or should he tell the truth, that nearly every company has the same issues and nearly every company follows GAAP (as they should).

Should jonny point out that MSFT stock is going down, or should he point out that it is going down LESS than the rest of the market?

Should jonny ignore the positive aspects of the discussion and post only his twisted, illogical, out of context pieces of drivel that only a perverted freak of nature would believe?

I guess you know the answers to these questions since you continue to ignore reality and make up your own freakshow reality post after post.

Get a life freak.

Dave

<<<<discussion with you leads to you telling us that the truth should be ignored.... you can't come up with a good reason why MSFT is making numbers up using 290 million share buy back, then forgetting to buy back the shares, so the only thing left for you is to say it is a lie... and that truth has no part on these brds...>>>>

Wow!! An amazing statement. That truth has no part on these brds. Of course most of us knew that about you already. I'll stick to the facts.

MSFT can decide for itself whether or not to buy back all those shares. I have no idea what they have planned for all the cash on hand.

I explained where the numbers came from. I can't help it if you are financially challenged.

I'm not the one who claimed that granting 200 million option shares last year costs MSFT $11 billion when the stock price is going lower. How financially challenged can you be. Stick to the tech stuff and stop showing us how dumb you really are.
