Mo, Oh come on now, cooking the books? Repeating the same thing about 10 times....give me a break, maybe you should go back and read a few of my previous posts about MSFT being very weak. I will be the first to admit, things for the short term have no reason to go up, I agree with you on that point. As for AY, make your point, and let's get on with it, I don't need to read it multiple times. I like to hear every viewpoint. Anything that can help me make a better educated decision, I am all for hearing. Cooking the books? Really, we should be able to come up with something better than that! I appreciate your opinion, now, let's get on with a more prosperious discussion. RichieH

Re: Earnings don't matter (ask yourself why QCOM has a loss and rockets up, but MSFT has profits but climbs down) - what matters is the potential for explosive growth (200-300% or more annually). MSFT, is a behemoth that simply cannot grow by such percentage rates. It is a very profitable, still growing company - but it is a mature company. This is not a rocket that's going to quintuple in a year. ****** That is a dangerous statement. Do you want to let YOUR shares go for $80/share?........I did'nt think so. The action in MSFT will surprise you this year. Onward and upward, 3 steps forward, 1 1/2 steps back. I refuse to sell the MSFT shares for an unproven, unprofitable, unknown, unlikely-to-succeed internet company. (not referring to QCOM)
