>>I've held MSFT for 8 years now and think I understand the company pretty well.

That's exactly why I find spending time on SI so valuable; I get to learn about a company from veterans who can put today's outlook into perspective. Since you've held so long, please don't quote your adjusted cost basis as it would detract from my sense of accomplishment in holding msft and participating un today's rally <g>. Suffice it to say that I applaud your longetivity, and aspire to emulate you.

Frank

Buy and hold...it works, people. It makes you rich. It leaves you relaxed. Highly recommended.

Hear! Hear!

Agree with Buy and Hold. I bought Msft in 1993 and have never even considered taking profits. 8)
