LindyBill--I like the 10%. Easier for MSFT to argue it is not a monopoly and would make those video tapes and e-mail a non factor in the trial.
Then everything becomes just aggressive competitive moves by MSFT.

I wonder if we will see an upturn at the end of the day (ie selling in tech is over). Otherwise--hope it is tomorrow.

LindyBill---My suspicions are confirmed by CFO Maffei!. See story below and my post of yesterday. We are heading higher folks. Notice he is not bearish as usual--meaning he wants MSFT to go up and the net stocks to go down. He will do what it takes to accomplish this. I would not be surprised by another positive announcement of some sort soon to accomplish this. Take off will be sooner not later.
Yahooooo!!!! No! I mean MSNNNNNNNNNN! (Nah-it doesn't sound good)

Americans thought we Canadians hate MSFT---Look at the last couple of lines in that last Bloomberg story(see my last post).

In other remarks at the conference, Maffei said a third of U.S. Web users have set up a ''Hotmail'' e-mail account offered by Microsoft, and new users are signing on at rate of 125,000 a day. He also said a tenth of all Canadians are registered with Hotmail.

OK -We are still behind in our acceptance of Hotmail but we are getting there.

And MSFT has close to 90% of the office applications for both the Mac and Windows. (And makes more per unit on the Mac.)
