Dearest Earlie, who's job it seems is to protect investors who don't read the footnotes:

MSFT has more disclosure on option activity than anyone. I repeat, they DISCLOSED before they were FORCED to disclose.

Since you are the math wizard, why don't you back out what they recover from the government from credits, back out their repurchase program, and back out the put program. Tell us what you find. I'll save you the trouble. You will find the strongest, safest and most liquid balance sheet in the HISTORY of the world. There are a thousand FRAUD companies chiseling shareholders every day. And you pick this one? Don't make it a cause celeb to protect potential investors who don't do their homework.
