>>The $30+ billion is more than four times estimated '98 earnings for MSFT.<< Yea but thats only twice the CASH they have on hand. And they have specifically said they wont use that cash for anythign else since its to pay for stock options. And that is also why they dont like their stock to be highly priced since it costs them $500 million more to buy each time the share price goes UP 1.
