Wow, nice editing! Or is that a real CD? Pretty funny either way.
By the way, I heard that M$ is being split in 2? Yes?

[jadison]

yeah, they sure are, 1 Branch will handle the actual Windows operating system, while the other will handle the software, ie. Internet Explorer, Office 2000, etc.

I was going to invest stocks in the company, but based on what I here about there stocks falling, I don't think that would be a wise decision!

Actually jadison, it's possible that an investment now could be a good idea(especially since it's been doing poorly since mid March) (http://www.quicken.com/investments/charts/?symbol=MSFT). I think when AT&T broke up the shareholders won out eventually. Of course I'm far from an authority on this. Might want to ask an economist or something.

i'm no stock analyst by any means, but you've got to realize that M$ stock will always be a money maker. imho, the price drop is affording a chance that may not come around again in a long time.

So You're saying buy when their stock prices reach just the right amount, just before they rise again?

Excuse me for my little knowledge on the basis of stocks...I will be earning a great deal of money in the next couple of months, and I've been trying to teach myself about stocks as best I can: reading info. about stocks in certain websites, etc.
I'd really like to invest now, it's never too late, but I need to know a lot more about it 1st.

Esp. for college, I would like to attend MIT, my mind can do it, but my budget can't!! http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/frown.gif So I figure stocks would be a good investment for that (duh!)

Well, anyway, everyone have a good day!

For long term investments (5 years or more)invest in Mutual Funds. FInd some that are at least 5 years old to show its stability and track record. Find a broker who is willing to teach you how it works and why to invest what and where(could take a while). And yes it seems to be a good time to invest in MS prices are down because people are scared. Plus when they do split up MS I would think that your stock would also be split which could be a big benefit in the long run.
