Whisper numbers are already running as high as 57c.
MSFT won't meet the whisper numbers. I think MSFT
will report 49c. Then Greg Moeffi and company will
lay down the comments "50%, 48%, 41%, 33%, 25%, 18%...
our growth rates are slowing,..." Fear of growth rate
slowdown will take over greed and we will get back to
low 90s.

MSFT is now a 14 Billion company, if it grew 50% a year
for the next 5 years, it will have to have revenues of
$106 Billion or the largest company by revenues in the
US, along the way, it will surpass IBM, Coke, Phillip
Morris, AT&T, Ford, Chrysler, Compaq, ....This is
difficult to impossible
