Claude, investment income is included in earnings provided that it in stocks and derivatives of other (non-MSFT) companies. I would need to look at the report to see what is going on. Here is a link to a site in which Edwarda and I propose to debate the issue of stock options --- that is if she ever shows up. exchange2000.com TTFN, CTC

Claude, I calculate about $.10 per share basic (back of the envelope calculation) is due to investment income. I have long been critical of MSFT's huge cash horde. I think it either needs to be deployed into useful profit-generating assets or returned to s/h. TTFN, CTC
