  Microsoft Updates Shareholders on Growth and Innovation Outlook
Time: 12:54 EST/17:54 GMT | News Source: Microsoft Press Release | Posted By: Jonathan Tigner

Microsoft Corp. today discussed with shareholders its ongoing confidence for the future and its focus on driving growth by delivering value and innovation from all its businesses. The company also announced that shareholders voted in favor of proposed amendments to the company's stock plans. The special one-time dividend of $3.00, which was conditioned upon approval of these amendments, will be paid Dec. 2, 2004, to shareholders of record on Nov. 17, 2004.

"Our ability to deliver a continuing stream of innovative new products and services to our customers makes me more optimistic than ever about the years ahead," said Bill Gates, chairman and chief software architect at Microsoft. "We're delivering exciting new innovations in growth markets such as digital entertainment, mobile devices and gaming, while continuing to help enterprises of every size become more productive and competitive."
