Larry, While it is certainly true that anything can happen in a trial (think of a certain orange juice), it is unlikely that Lexar will prevail. Many of Sandisk's patents have already been tested in court against more powerful companies than Lexar (Samsung). Lexar tried very hard to buy time so that they could get their IPO out before a ruling came down, so that they could pay the judgement, but no luck for them. A company with $29m in revenue and $14m in losses--without paying the royalties that other competitors in the sector are paying--tends to have bad luck. Your comment about MSFT was a little gratuitous. I say this respectfully. But, IMO, one case has absolutely nothing to do with the other. Best wishes, Sam
