Hang in there zoozoom. The market might be coming back. Let a professional (you trust personally with no vested interest) review your 401 K... you may want to look at consumer defensive stocks such as Walmart, Costco, PG, Palmolive and related stocks…P. Obama’s stimulus package will benefit those stocks…as long as your are diversified, you should fine in the long run 5-7 years….make sure to increase your 401 K contribution (if you can affor it) at this time. everything “on sale”

MSFT is still a cheap stock by all measures...if you believe in it buy it.. what the heck less then 21! I believe you made the right decision. I hope I am wrong.

if the market is going to rally, just close your eyes and buy any major tech name (csco, orcl, IBM, AAPL...()...
If the market is heading back down, you made a good decision...

it is a win-win situation
