I don't know. The Seattle Times usually updates their web page at 1 pm (4 for those out east) with the Night Final story on the morning proceedings, but there's nothing today. Did they take recess this morning? By the way, has anyone noticed that Microsoft's youngest attorney, Michael Lavorca seems to have become the Boies of this trial. I have a feeling that if this trial had gone on as long as IBM's did years ago, that Lavorca would have emerged as the same kind of superstar that Boies became after defending IBM. If anyone likes to read about the spirit of the trial (rather than the substance), then one can't do better than Microsoft's own Slate magazine. The writer uses an irritating "Antitrust Trial for Dummies" style, but if one can get beyond that, it's an interesting story. The writer is a one-time divorce lawyer and has some interesting takes on the testimony, but she's especially good at describing the players. Here's yesterday's report with links to the others: slate.com
