Reality Check
The guy is right, Google is way over hyped and share price driven off unrealistic ideas on what the Internet is all about. I love Google and Gmail and Google Earth but it is not in the same league of software experience as companies like Microsoft and Sun and a vast number of other companies. Share price and company value is based in the belief that click thru ads will reap billions of dollars, not based on how fabulous the software team are (even though they are pretty good at what they do). I expect Google will remain a mega cash sucking monster and share price remain high and the company will probably flourish. But don't compare Google and Microsoft as software developers, Google are not in the same league at all.
