  Rahesh,
   
  When do you expect Microsoft's demise to 
  occur?

    I have been an huge admirer of 
    Microsoft.
     
    From what I see now this time round Microsoft 
    has surely dug its grave and is just building the coffin for itself. Its 
    only a matter of time.Microsoft will be broken up. No amount of political 
    lobbying is going to help Microsoft this time round, i.e. if the politicians 
    want to have the people on their side. Eventually the free market and 
    peoples power will prevail. 
     
    Microsoft will not be able to hide behind 
    the bushes.  
     
    I for one will not be upgrading or buying any 
    more office products for my personal use. No XPs for me. Switching to Linux 
    (buggy but it sure would make me happy to support it).
     
    Unless microsoft take a 180 degree turn right 
    now ala Intel, the company as you know it today will be 
history.
     
    When the Euphoria sets into the pricing of MSFT 
    I will be there on the top and will short it all the way. 
     
     
    Anyone here betting that I will have to chew 
    and munch my word?
