CATIII-NDB,
Problem is, most people just look at "PCs" and forget about how embedded Microsoft is in the business and government worlds. Microsoft are not going anywhere anytime soon.
I see no reason to sell Microsoft shares. Even if they are unlikely to soar any time soon, they are equally if not more unlikely to ever dive substantially. Hence making a nice stable platform for those who like going after dividends or just want a stable rock in their portfolio.
