Microsoft's Six Year Wagon Rut
,----[ Quote ]
| The fact that Microsoft (MSFT) stock has been a bollinger band traders dream
| for the last six years is no fluke. People have been waiting for the XP
| Killer Windows Vista to come out for some time. Now it is out and Microsoft
| is still trading in the same channel.

Microsoft's Six Fatal Errors
,----[ Quote ]
| Last week Jackson ordered the biggest software redesign Microsoft has ever
| known, concluding that splitting the software giant into two independent
| companies was "imperative." In one of the few court-ordered breakups over the
| past 100 years, the judge endorsed the government's plan to create one
| company that would sell Windows and another that would sell everything else.

Ballmer Is Left With `Google Envy,' Sinking Stock
,----[ Quote ]
| Bill Gates today turns Microsoft Corp. over to the sole leadership of Steve
| Ballmer. There may have been better times for a handoff.
|
| Shares of the world's largest software maker are down 22 percent this year,
| sales of Windows software are slowing, and an attempt to buy Yahoo! Inc.
| flopped. And Google Inc. is widening its lead over Microsoft in Internet
| searches, leaving Ballmer with a case of ``chronic Google envy,'' according
| to Jane Snorek, an analyst at Minneapolis-based First American Funds.
