Drama unfolds in wake of judge's ruling news.cnet.com CNet goes for a purple prose headline on what seems to be a slow news day. The story seems pretty content free, the main news seems to be from the story Microsoft, DOJ to meet with judge Thursday news.cnet.com , but that meeting is procedural, nothing to do with settlement talks. Anyway, from the bigger story: Microsoft also faces a whole litany of lawsuits should it go the appeals route. Once the judge rules on the case, the findings of fact become admissible in civil antitrust trials, said legal experts. Whether Microsoft is ready to talk settlement or not may have more to do with personality than good business judgment, said Lande. Asked Lande: "Will Bill Gates' ego triumph or will he say, 'OK, we lost this one, I'll lick my wounds, settle this thing on OK terms, and get on with the business of making computer software.' Or will his ego get in the way?" Cheers, Dan.
