Li Cai,

The logic I see behind why MSFT continues to hold its own in front of sooo many soon-to-be-disasters for MSFT is that there are sooo many shareholders out there that just cannot believe that MSFT is actually a normal company with weaknesses. If you want to see MSFT's life-cycle, you can look at IBM in the late 70s and into the 80s. No one in the right mind thought that anyone would ever best IBM in the PC world. It was their market to control, but they did lose it.

So the stockholders will only come to their senses when the actual DOJ trial announcement occurs and it is official that MSFT lost the case and remedial action will be applied to MSFT. Their are still too many stockholders out there that are saying and investing with a "MSFT is invincable and nothing bad could ever happen to our gravy-train".

But it will - and we will see it this year.
