T2,

I agree. Bill Gates wants this thing settled and I am confident that every effort is being made to make this happen. I would be really surprised if this matter is not resolved this week. Going to trial is not in anyone's best interest. MSFT has reshaped itself into a major communications, entertainment and software company. We need to get closure on this issue now.

John

Well, earnings will be out in 3 weeks. This is what I would like to focus on. Lot of people are trading short term options based on speculation of what would happen on case. I think the risks are enormous on short term options. Even if a settlement were to occur the stock may decide to hover around 120 till earnings.
