Having said that -- it's a good lesson that people have to learn for themselves. You set a price - you set your expectations - and if that goes against you - then you MUST be prepared to take the loss and move on.

People have been waiting for 12 years for Microsoft to rebound.... think about that -- a DECADE of dead money.
Sound advice... i have a sell in @ about 25 ish.. hopefully i can level out..
