I can't think of a reason I'd want any Microsoft stock. It fluctuates way too much for my taste. Basically, any tech stock--especially this one--is way too volatile for me. Another answer is that it is simple, you shouldn't buy stock.
The place you would generally buy Microsoft Stock is the NASDAQ Stock Market. Obviously you can and likely will be purchasing the stock through a brokerage.
Microsoft made a $150 million investment in non-voting Apple stock in 1997.

In the current stock market, you should choose the stocks you buy very wisely.
If in 1976 you could buy 5000 shares of what is now Microsoft stock, it would be worth the same as 5000 shares of Microsoft that was purchased today - no matter when you bought it, it would be 5000 x today's stock price of Microsoft (you would probably pay more today). You probably want to know how rich you would be today if you had purchased 5000 shares of Microsoft stock in 1976. That would take some research because the shares of Microsoft stock available in 1976 are probably not the same as what is available today (because of splits and other events that could have occurred).
There are a lot of useful tips in investing stock. In my opinions and most of the stock investors', you should always buy stock when it is low, and sell high. This means you should buy the stock when you see great potential growth in that company.
Microsoft didn't go public until 1986 -- there was no stock sold in 1980.
