Let’s be clear, other than the occasional use of word and excel, the company is dead to me. That does not mean you can’t make money. I don’t buy the Vista numbers and growth, but I do believe Microsoft is a huge beneficiary of the weak dollar and cheaper computing. My mistake for calling them …

Dell, Intel, Microsoft and Yahoo Flying…What it Means…
Dudes…if you are short this market, you have no skills. Please stick to just managing your money :) . If you are long these four together, you are likely 58 years old and wear a three piece suit and have underperformed for 7 years. Disclosure – This daily post is dedicated to the bears who …
Microsoft…It Is Alive!
Sometimes you just don’t ask questions, you just eat crow and move on. That is unless you are a shortseller. Than you just dig in and argue and defend and lose money. I have stayed away from the stock of Microsoft and have been calling it dead. I guess I am/have been wrong. They are …
Who is MORE Pathetic…Microsoft or Steve Ballmer?
I guess Steve was sweating and ranting over at the Web 2.0 conference while I wwas with my family at Alcatraz. That’s interesting seeing that Steve Ballmer needs some solitary confinement. He needs to be gone and Microsoft needs to be split up…yesterday. Seeing that he was giving out his email address today – steveb@microsoft.com …
Microsoft…Can't Stop Copying
It’s pretty pathetic that all the supposedly smart minds in Seattle can’t think for themselves. I was in the Apple store today (packed as usual and at an odd time) trying to buy Microsoft Office for a few new machines around the house and office. Of course, there was the $499 pack for old people …
Facebook and Microsoft…Focus on RIMM
Now they are just talking an investment at a $10 billion market cap . In July I wrote often on the topic and thought Microsoft had to pay up. This new strategy is just a cheaper way to play and I don’t like it at all. That’s why they are Microsoft, though the stock is …
Microsoft…two other acquisitions they should make…GARMIN and TASER
Garmin and Taser…the possibilities! Microsoft as software is it’s own boring dwindling economy, but Microsoft has the power to make Taser the weapon of choice in law enforcement and legitimize it through the lobbysists. Garmin is another tech consumer play they can afford and should make to get them in autos and back strong in …
Should Microsoft Buy RIMM…ABSOLUTELY
AND if not them…Google should or even DELL. Reuters is reporting the rumor. I mean, somebody better do something drastic or Apple and RIMM just walk away with consumer tech over the next 5 years. I am embarrased to say I never thought of this rumor, but if they (Microsoft, Dell, Google) want to be …
Facebook – Microsoft or IPO Update
Yes, I was wrong. Just on timing so far. A Facebook IPO at this point is risky. The growth is fast in numbers, but the inkling of a model is not. A $10 billion IPO could flop if click throughs and Ad issues are not rock solid. Microsoft, on the other hand, can risk the …
Is Microsoft about to Join the Nasdaq Party with Facebook Acquisition?
Picking tops and bottoms is for suckers, as is gaming takeovers. I have totally stopped gaming tops and bottoms, but still love gaming acquisitions. A few days ago I started believing in a Microsoft/Facebook deal. I speculated $5-$7 billion. Now blogs within Microsoft are starting to glob onto the rumors . Seeing that this merger …
