>last time IBM had a stock split was about the same time MSFT had a stock split. I dont know the exact dates but I believe it was within weeks of each other. And you are right, IBM is in the $160-$170 range while MSFT is still in the low $120s. So which company had the better growth from the last split? Looks like IBM did.

Last split:
IBM 5/28/97
MSFT 2/23/98

Stock appreciation since approx 5/28/97:

IBM: 91%
MSFT: 97%

Still having trouble with "truth", Toy. You are proud of the "forecasts" that you make, but you have a problem with facts.

Here is the same chart w/NOVL included. It hasn't exactly trounced MSFT either, though the latest runup is impressive and well-deserved.
