> I read that MSFT is one of companies rumoured to be bidding on a cable operation in the U.K. (newsalert.com) It could only have a positive effect on the stock since price is only about 200 million (pocket change).

This won't happen. Microsoft has a firm grasp of what its core competency is - writing software. I wouldn't be suprised at more "seed" investments to help accelerate the adoption of cable modems, digital set-tops, etc., but Microsoft has no interest in running a cable company.
