t2k, these other suits are a legitimate risk.

But the market will discount them quickly, as the playing field will be different. Keep in mind:

1) MSFT's legal team will be ready for anything after this DOJ trial. Consider it a brutal scrimmage.
2) MSFT's lawyers will not face Boies in a civil suit with competitors, and that's a bonus (he's excellent and underrated)
3) These suits being filed assumes MSFT loses this trial in a worst case fashion, which I don't believe will happen (see yesterday's posts).

Being cautious and a little nervous is good for investors, it forces us to constantly reevaluate the "why" in why we invest in the companies we do.

Thanks,
Teflon
