In the last 12 months, Microsoft stock has gone from a low of 26.60 to 36.84 today. That is an annual return of 46%.

Quick! Everyone sell your house and buy MSFT stock!

Just saw . It seems, the Japanese are bored with PCs, and are buying other tech gear instead. My understanding is most of the world is going in a similar direction. My question, is if people stop buying PCs, and businesses continue moving servers to Linux, what is MSFT going to sell? Zunes?

What you're seeing with MSFT stock price is the Zillow effect. People in Seattle are Zillowing their homes so often, that they need a faster Vista machine to keep up with their desire to see their home's price change by the second.

Don't think for a second that Microsoft is complacently sitting still.

Guess I'm on my own here.

Alright, I retract all neutral or negative sentiment regarding Microsoft. They are the model corporation and unfairly picked on by the media, Europe, nerds, and most other tech companies. Oh yeah, and their free soda for employees is better than Google's free food.
