That's a relief. I think the confusion comes from Microsoft using the phrase "business graphics" which is what Visio does too. No, I don't think that caused the big sell-off per se, but it can add wariness. Visio prides itself on Office-savviness, to the point of people thinking Visio should be bundled with Office. So, like me, they might be predisposed to believe MS might do that... I think the reason for the sell-off was a combo of losing momentum players after dropping on international revenue concerns. My big problem is I bought a bunch at 15, to complement old purchases at 42 (pre-split) and 36 (post-split). So now all of a sudden my portfolio is pretty lopsided at 32+ price. - Adam
