mindmeld.

PSFT is a fine stock, and I am sure plenty of $$$ has been made and will be made.

My decision of going with SAP rather than PSFT is that SAP combines the best of two worlds: relatively price stability and high growth. In addition, its dominance in the enterprise software space could pull itself further away from the pack--such as PSFT and BAANF.

There are other things in life that I wish to devote attention to. Although I spend a lot of time watching the market, it is mostly for fun and not out of necessity. With smaller, niche-oriented issues (in a relative sense), you've got to be on your toes.

Just my personal choice.

PS: I do have a position in BAANF, though.

Mind,

I just charted SAPHY and PSFT share prices for the past 12 months. SAPHY appreciated 140% range while PSFT was in the 70% range. I am thinking about buying some PSFT, but SAPHY is simply so overpowering in market presence, and in share price appreciation... .

Your thoughts would be appreciated.

Bottom line...you won't hurt with either holding. The question is which will be better over the next "X"-period.

Good Investing
