HOLD

Had the big run up through the 80's & 90's. Since 2000, flat. Trying to reinvent itself. Feels it's going somewhere with the new convergance. Making deals with other parties. With the large consolidation that it's had, it usually indicates a breakout.

DON'T BUY

Good company, but not a growth company. In the long term, when they take advantage with their relationship with SAP (SAP-N) they can move further into the enterprise. There are faster growing situations that can be invested in.

BUY

Looks interesting. Had 5 years of support at $24. If we are to get a shift in leadership from the commodity into the new economy/technology, Microsoft has to participate. If it breaks through the support level, get out.

HOLD

Hasn't done much lately. Paid out a gigantic dividend. Generates massive amounts of cash. Not a growth stock.

BUY

History of free cash flow and return on equity is what tells you if a stock is good to own. Microsoft grossly outperforms Apple (AAPL-Q) both in stock as well as the underlying earnings. Provides a better long term investment.

DON'T BUY

Not bullish on high technology. Just used a big chunk of its cash to pay out a nice dividend. Looking at their FMV, they haven't paid out enough, so the stock is going to remain sluggish.

DON'T BUY

Not considered a growth stock. Facing a transition with the slowdown in the PC market. Pays a dividend.

DON'T BUY

Their model price is $27.55. Doesn't see any great value in the stock. In a lot of the tech companies, accumulated depreciation is substantially greater than net plant equipment which means that a lot of them have not been investing in their own operation for the last 5 years.

SELL

Has gotten too big. To have any meaningful profit gains, there is nothing on the horizon to do it. It's multiple is more of a growth stock than a value stock.

DON'T BUY

Caller has a $27 January Call Option. Microsoft does not have a great growth prospect for the future. Doesn't think there's much downside on the company. Options are cheap, but without growth, they won't pay off.

DON'T BUY

Very good products, but the law of big numbers is up against them. Difficult for them to diversify and getting any better returns than what they are getting currently.

DON'T BUY

Has recently been in an uptrend. An expensive stock. No longer a growth company, but still trades at a high multiple.

TOP PICK

Their Xbox video game Halo 2 is extremely well. The company has managed to maintain revenue growth at around 15/20%. Expects this to continue into 2005 and PE is a little under 20%.

BUY

A very conservative investment in the technology sector. Has a lot of cash. Very strong company. Feels it has good growth potential. Strong software programs, new developments are good, setting up new program to compete with Google.

TOP PICK

Makes a lot of cash and trades at a discount to the market multiple.
