Hello all, I have been generally impressed with the high quality of this thread and have decided to jump in, maybe to contribute some humble thoughts. To give you some background, I have watched the stock off and on for a half a year, and then jumped in after the first fall. Since I had not been holding the stock long, I confess to be one of those irritating people that kept selling and buying after earnings, causing the stock to fluctuate and not rise. I finally got caught at 22 1/2, did another trade at 19 - 19/12, got caught with some more at 19 again and have bought more just recently at 13. At this point, I would qualify this stock as a "no brainer" for the long term, because I thought even at it's all time high it wasn't overvalued. This is just to say I have extreme confidence in this stock for the long run, and that I did not panic once as it went down (in fact I increasingly recommended it to friends as it did). This may not be interesting to people in this thread, but the fact that I am both a software engineer(therefore technical background) and a equal MSFT shareholder might be. And I do not consider myself hedging my bets as far as RTOS goes by doing so. If anyone has any questions on my (hopefully) balanced position on this, feel free to ask. Timothy
