Smart Investor, That seems like a smart move to me. It is us options trader that need to sweat it out. The guys holding shares can just relax. That IBM Linux announcement can't hurt MSFT---it can show that they don't have a monopoly and face possible competition.

WOW!!! Smart Investor. Now that is Smart Investing based on completely unbiased and well informed logic. Lets see, Windows2000 (aka NT5) has been on the horizon for how long? 3-5 years now. The horizon is still 1 year away as their competitor OS codes and JAVA and Linux are executing on their go-to-market strategies and picking up speed everyday. Windows2000 sits in the starting gate and the horse fell asleep. But your not biased - ROFL!!! 80% of your investments are in MSFT. There is another wise move from a Smart Investor. I think you should make a commitment to MSFT and hit 100% - but hurry, the MSFT sale ends soon. LOL - I love this channel - what entertainment! Toy

Smart Investor, > IBM is not what it used to be. Their operating system record is >pathetic. Remember OS2? uh, let us not forget that OS2 was a product designed by...MSFT ! i have microsoft marketing literature for a microsoft compiler pushing microsoft OS2. anyway, i think you're right about the strong cycle. i bought a 2001 leaps 160 call yesterday for $3600. i wish i'd waited for today, it's $400 cheaper. i see some support around 141, then 120...anyone else looking at charts? puts has been the way to make money on msft lately, i was wrong yesterday. jeff
