divit,

i would worry about billy bad selling his stock like a drunken sailer than another ceo exercising his options that were granted years before. quest, worldcom, and other ceo's all sold large amounts of stock before their stock went down. hold on, your in for a "rocky" ride for the next 5-10 years. x-box, msn, .net are all msft losers and will drain the company. adding expenses can fix the problem.

how is staroffice doing these days at $25 a pop?

rocky.

"Now, there’s a man named Larry Ellison who cashed in $706 million in stock options, Oracle, while his stock went from $46 down to $5. Now, he didn’t do anything illegal but I wonder how many of his employees who had those stock options got the same deal?"

considering MSFT employees cashed in about $9.4 BILLION dollars worth of stock options.... JUST IN ONE YEAR... while MSFT's stock price got cut by 40%..... i wouldn't be throwing any rocks around your glass house....
