I don't trade my MSFT commons; rather, I hedge my position with option plays. Regards, Ibexx

I buy more MSFT today. Win98 is not a small potatoes, it is a really hot potatoes. Man why people downplay Win98 release, I think it is even bigger than win95 release in some ways. If you want to upgrade from win3.1 to win95 most people will need a new or upgrade to faster hardware. Win98 has the same hardware requirements as Win95 hardware, it makes it run more faster, better Plug&Play more Internet cool stuffs. The stuffs come with it worth more than $98, it is a steal at this price. Win95 users can upgrade to Win98 with no fear. This Win98 is going to be sold like a hot cake, most Win95 users will eventually upgrade it sooner or later, let's say within six months. MSFT will pop them out like a popcorn. Sure the opening sale event is not going to be as big hype as win95 but I expect the end result to be even greate than Win95. The ease of the upgrade from Win95 to Win98 will make this baby flying. Upgrade from win3.1 to Win95 was pain in the neck, you have to plug and play and pray to make it works. Users will find out soon that transition from win95 to win98 can be done without any frustration. Go!!!!!!!!!! MSFT!!!!!!!!!Billy Boy!!!!!!!!
