William, I went right for the last part of the article--copied below. I also think a settlement is on the way. Even if it is not, might increase volatility of the options.
Even as it seeks a settlement, Microsoft is rallying support for its cause on Capitol Hill, where it has
also opened its wallet wide with campaign contributions. This week, House Republican leaders
unveiled the "eContract," a package of legislative initiatives modeled after the 1994 Contract With
America.

Part of it appears aimed at the Microsoft case. In a section titled "reining in reckless federal
agencies," it warns against "allowing antitrust law to become an excuse for bureaucratic interference
with innovation and competition."
