Sure. But if you laughing you did not read my comments.

Reviewing the as companies and assuming delays as all companies have then they are the same. All companies do business the same basic way regardless of size.

If you took the time to read I also pointed out that if your looking and how stable one is to the other then there is a differnce. In that fact every company is differnt so you can not compare one to the other.

As an investor in both I treat them the same especially with statements of when something might arrive on market.

Should I dump my MSFT stock after seeing they are not competent enough to meet there own goals for the Xbox 360. They planned on shipping almost 3 million units but did not have the forsight to have enough parts to sell 600,000 units. So right now the games division is posting a 293 million dollar loss. Plus the delay of launch in Australia to March which will be competing with the PS/3 & Revolution launches at that point. Not to mention less that stellar sells in Japan.

My answer is no because I have believe they will eventually produce the product and profit. Just like Vista (longhorn) will ship eventually even if it is not what was promised. I attribute my decesion to the stability of the company and the track record of being late but eventually overcoming that.

Now with QBID I dont' see the stability I would like nor do I see the numbers I would like on the stock and can not see any others but I still think it will come. My position is QBID is a known gamble on an unstable company that I think has a good product. When I see delays I see them as any other company would have regardless of size. If you are not gambling you should not be in the pinks.
