<<<In other words, the "one billion dollar settlement" that was proposed to the court would only cost Microsoft $440 million after taxes.>>>

As usual your grasp of financial matters is lacking. It would cost MSFT $666M after taxes on a billion dollar settlement. Unless you think they are in 56% tax bracket. The IRS might not allow the deduction though, since Extortion as an expense may not be deductible.
