*LOL* Microsoft is on its way out.

Their income statements and balance sheets don't reflect that ...

Yes they do. Note that Microsoft's share price has been stagnant for about five years. Their prospects for growth into new markets are essentially zero. Windows and Office between them account for 140% of Microsoft's profits--that's right, 140%. The XBox division has been a huge drain on those profits--it's lost about 5 billion dollars over its lifetime, and never made a profit.

140%?!?! Uh huh, sure.

Keep dreaming.
