Another record first quarter for Microsoft

Microsoft Investor Relations - Press Releases

$5.2 billion in profit on $18.53 billion in revenue. PC sales are still in decline but ad revenue took a big leap forward. I expect revenue to surge once the Nokia deal is done.

I just about sold my MSFT holdings a few days back so I could add to my JCP position. I decided otherwise and sold my HP shares instead. Glad I kept them.
