Move Over, Xbox. Here Comes the Tbox | |
|
||
| Time: 19:11 EST/00:11 GMT | News Source: Microsoft Watch | Posted By: Alex Harris | ||
|
More than a year ago, Microsoft was talking up its "connected car" concept, which centered largely around a smart black box, known as the "Tbox." It sounds as if Microsoft finally has found a way to make its intelligent auto hub a reality. Supposedly, a number of new model cars will embed the Microsoft Tbox device, starting soon. | ||

My Benz has all these thing already and by the way so does my friend's Beemer. How is this any different?
The article says this thing is going into all Fiat models (Fiat is the company that GM is giving money to get rid of)!!?? Sounds to me like ms is trying to get into another market that they will do in a mediocre fashion. I bet it won’t help their stock price. Damn it. Is MS ever going to make any money making anything besides an OS and Office? |

| I think XBox is much better than PS2. I also think GameCube is better. I have played all three to make a sound judgement. I think all PS2 games are the same, you either kill somebody or you blow them up... |

#3 and #4, you two need to actually read a quarterly and annual report of the companies you pretend to know something about. Nearly every Microsoft product line is profitable. No, none of the products outside their major software lines are ever going to bring in outsized profit margins but they are profitable none the less.
The stock price of Microsoft hasn't moved for three reasons: one - Wall Street has expected in the past profit margins in the 50%+ range - because Microsoft has entered less profit margin rich areas - this indicator has trended down; two - there are over 10 billion Microsoft shares - it takes a lot of trading to move a stock with that much "overhang;" three - the P/E is above the present market index P/Es - if you buy the stock at this price you are paying a premium over market. Nevertheless, money can be made owning Microsoft shares. For example, using covered call options is often used when the price of a stock remains in a trading range. Here is a primer on this strategy: http://biz.yahoo.com/opt/strategy2.html . |
