djia, I didn't expect settlement for a long time until judge Posner was appointed. It is as if going through appeals court an year earlier. Posner will tell DOJ/states that a) MSFT is not a monopoly in the broader OS sense and the industry is too dynamic. b) MSFT didn't do predatory pricing c) MSFT helped consumers. Where would that leave DOj and states? They wil take any settlement. I have read a bit about Judge Ponser since the appointment. This is the best thing happned to this case since it all started. I think market will reward the stock soon. Could be as soon as tomorrow as the news of settlement discussions is leaking.
