You seem to be impressed by other things - position, power, politics. You totally misconstrued my meaning. Not surprising, but I'll try one last time to clarify. When you make brash statements about things that you don't know anything about, others on these boards will. It has nothing to do with position and politics. It has to do with understanding corporate dynamics and access to information. Nice exchanging posts with you. BTW, it looks like your company is providing a valuable service. Good to see. Have a great life. Mike

Frederick, As you have quickly noticed by the posters that are responding to you - many of them personally slam you and not your ideas. This a a common trait on this board. The Pro-MSFTer on this board take any negative MSFT news and opinions very personally. I guess they have fallen in love with their stock and selling MSFT stock is simply not an option for most of them. Since selling their stock is not an option, they have no choice but to lash out, cover up, personally attack, and mock the posters that provide a negative view on MSFT's future. What I find so fascinating is that almost none of them will actually provide valuable counter-points to the facts that us MSFT-negative posters offer to this board. My only conclusion is that our points must be correct so the only counter-point they have is to personally attack the person posting the negative information. Just an observation that has become crystal clear during my time on this board. You are 100% correct as to Mozek's posting value since he has the most reason to provide biased information - being that he is an actual MSFT employee. What else would you expect from him. Of all the Pro-MSFTers, I would still respect Rudedog's postings - even though we disagree many times. At least he makes a stab at providing counter-points to my points. MSFT-negative posters on this board must have thick skin. My skin is the texture of an Elephant! PS - GREAT Grey Cup Game yesterday!!! Yet another super CFL final. The CFL once again did not disappoint! Congrats Calgary. Toy
