In Sep '07 MSFT's gross margins were 81% and its operating margins were a whopping 43%!

Why can't we consumers buy 5 year old version of MSFT Office for $10? I don't need any of the features added to Word or Excel in the last 5 years....

Hillary wants to confiscate Exxon's profits for her village.

Sorry Joe but Hillary wants to increase the taxes on oil companies so we can become energy independent; not "confiscate their profits" as you suggest. Do you not want to become energy independent? That's right......you want to suck up all the oil until there is none and then worry about becoming oil independent. Never mind.
