You are relentless in your dislike of this co. yet you can't stay off the thread. I think its humorous

Jean, Your dislike of PSFT is obvious by now. I can only wonder what the cause is. I figure this is somewhat of a personal issue and maybe somewhere in your career must have been rejected by PSFT. It's got to be something like this. I still haven't heard a good explanation from you as to what is so awful about the PSFT technology, btw. To say that PSFT is going to go the way of novell, borland, etc. is just a ridiculous statement for you to make and just supports my feeling that your statements are not based on fact but on emotion. To say that ORCL, SAP and JDEC will survive but PSFT will die just cracks me up. What are you basing this statement on? Also, with respect to this whole Momentum thing....I'd much rather see PSFT invest $300M in a development company that to use it to buy back shares. PSFT is not the first company to ever have done this either. That $300M is an investment in the future of the company. It will allow them to bring more products to market much faster than if they hadn't done it this way. Melissa
