Cause, OP is either lying or wrong. Use google or yahoo finance...

2001 microsoft stock = $27 per share

2003 2:1 share split

2011 microsoft stock = $28 per share

How is this equal when "adjusted"?

Which means they are almost the same price x2 the amount of shares.  The person would have double the shares at around the same price.   Here was the split in 2003.

February 14, 2003
2 for 1
$48.30 (Feb 14)
$24.96 (Feb 18)
