>>I hope they fight this antitrust abomination right to the end and if the stock price suffers in the interim, so be it. Capitulation for short term gains will lead to a dark future. And not just for MSFT. I fully agree with this scenario. No concessions. Anyone else ready to take this stand?<< Agreed, I think that this case may influence the outcome of next years presidential election. Frank

"Anyone else ready to take this stand?" absoulutely. when i bought the stock i hired bill to run the company for me. i think he knows what's best better than any of us. eventually this case will be behind us just like ballmer's overvalued comment and the delays in releasing windows 2000. it just may take a little longer. it's not like tobacco where someone's life is shortened every time they take a puff. the tobacco lawsuits will continue for that reason. this case, however painful, is a one time event. some day soon sentiment will change just like it did for oracle. don't know now what will cause it but you can be sure a stock like microsoft does not fall forever. although i didn't get in as early as 1987, i'm still grateful for how this company has changed my lifestyle. regards
