But Vista Didn't Get Here Soon Enough
Microsoft reported record (and what I consider stunning) revenues for its latest
quarter -- giving the company a run rate of $50 billion. So you'd think Wall
Street would be popping the corks on their Dom Perignon and lighting up Cohibos.
Instead, analysts drilled the stock, boo-hooing that profits fell 28 percent
to
only $2.6 billion. The profit hit was
largely
blamed on the Vista delay.
