Welcome to the Microsoft show


Two consecutive entries on the same subject, lame. But this recent court decision affects me personally. I work as an IT consultant, developer and sad to say, Microsoft is good for business. The servers that are installed with an OS from Microsoft require a lot of work to run reliably and securely. Business are willing to pay big bucks for that peace of mind. With the big buck that surrounds the microsoft’s name it’s amazing to me that shareholders, people who own a part of M$, don’t see any profit. You see M$ doesn’t pay dividends, shareholders make money when they sell M$ stock. Talk about the king’s new clothes. During the last M$ shareholder meeting there was a call for dividends which was promptly shot down. This makes no sense to me and maybe common sense has escaped the SEC in the US.
