Microsoft financial calendar notes
Posted by Benjamin J. Romano
Robbie Bach, president of Microsoft's Entertainment and Devices Division, will chat with financial analysts on Monday at 2 p.m. the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, Microsoft said this afternoon. Bach played a major part in Bill Gates annual keynote at the show last year and I expect him to do so again, especially given that this will be Bill Gates' last, for the foreseeable future, and Bach said as much in this interview in October (relevant passage is at the very bottom). We will be covering the keynote from Las Vegas. A Webcast of Bach's analyst presentation will be available from the company's investor relations site.
Also, Microsoft set Jan. 24 as the date for its fiscal second quarter earnings release. A conference call is scheduled for 2 p.m. Will the company be able to match the blistering pace it set during the fiscal first quarter?

Bill Gates, who last week ended his full-time involvement with Microsoft, was often right. He made a career, a company and an industry by looking over the horizon.
