One judge will not destroy MSFT. This is a complicated case, its not clear in many instances what is fact and what are legal interpretations of fact. MSFT may have some or all elements of a monopoly. Whether the judge labeled legal interpretations - as facts, will form the basis for much of this appeal. As such, the "facts" cannot simply be assumed. MSFT can manage any level of litigation. Most of these private tort style suits will be in the docket for yrs, before they are heard. The ultimate question is whether MSFT actions have been a net plus for consumers or have been a net detriment to consumers. This idea that innovation has been stifled is absurd. Would you consider CSCO a de facto monopoly? Does CSCO use its power and size that may at times act to the detriment of competitors? Should CSCO be broken up?
