"A Warren Buffet might view the MSFT trial as an opportunity, holding down the stock artificially, allowing smart investors to load up. What are they going to do w/ $17B? They could buy all of YHOO and AMZN, for example. (;>>"

I have seen the light, nothing is going to stop them.

As far as the 17 billion, I think we can't rule out a hostile bid of berkshire hathaway, once MSFT gets it up to about 30 billion. Should take about 2 years.
