you also said that MSFT would earn $1.90 this year too? what happened? not bad for the strongest company? i'd hate to see what you would consider bad, when a company only makes 60% of what you thought it was going to make..... oh, and even if MSFT could earn $1.90, you could take that same $42 and put it in a treasury bond earning 5% and make instead $2.10....... and you think $1.90 is "not bad".... you've got to be joking right? oh wait, you actually invested in this thinking..... boy is that going to cost you... i mean did cost you...... jon.
