I agree with many of your points. The damages, both government and private, could be huge. Could be $100 billion or more. Certainly, as we approach May 24th all but the intrepid souls will be nervous. I'm not sure how big the insurance thing is. Why would they think that intentional acts are insurable? I guess I never thought there would be any insurance coverage.

So far the material impact has been $0,000,000.

Gee, it took until the 7th point and number 8 a couple posts later to show your true color. Another SUNW worshipper trying to open a can of woopass on MSFT.

I am holding SUNW for about 5 years and will hold it at least 7 more if not more and I am sure to see ups and downs but I am a believer in the basic premise of the company, the business model, the execution of concept to market, and its leader Scott McNeally. I have felt they have always been an extremely honest company.

One of the possibilities is that the money coming out of MSFT will be huge and going into other technology stocks like IBM, SUNW, ORCL as well as others.

Now I know why you posted that MSFT traded at $60 afterhours last night and that it will hit 20 this year.

By the way, even though I can't stand meally mouthed McNealy, I do own SUNW as an investment and profited handsomely with it.
