I thought they said "past performance is not an indicator of future performance." Or more likely they have a stockpile of homilies to draw on to justify just about any situation (after the fact). An engineer looking to gain some insight into the future would look at the second derivative and see that for Apple it is increasing and for MS it is decreasing. They would also notice that it has been this way for quite a long time. But what you are responding to was an afterthought. The top of the post noted that MS was no longer in the top quintile of infotech companies. And that Dell did not even make the top 100. That is interesting. ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
