InternetNews | at | by Mike
The go-go days of Microsoft's double-digit growth may not be over after all. Microsoft reported Thursday that it brought in $16.37 billion in revenues and $6.48 billion in operating income, yielding diluted earnings per share of $0.50, in its second fiscal quarter of 2008, ending Dec. 31.
That comes on the heels of its best first fiscal quarter in years, which it reported in October.
"Revenue of over $16 billion this quarter exceeds our previous record by $2 billion," Chris Liddell, chief financial officer, said in a company statement.
