Rick Sherlund pointed out the stock could drop about 10 to 15 points upon a negative verdict (i believe)----but this may be trading at 120 post split at that point (this summer). So--120 - 7.5 (split adjusted)= 112.5 post split--------->I will take the 7.5 point hit.

RTev, You didnt understand my point regarding Y2K. What I meant by "one of the likely factors to the Windows2000 delay" was that many of the developers that had been working on the NT5 system have likely been pulled off it on several occassions to focus on testing and developing remedial patches for other MSFT products not related to NT5. i.e. MSFT would be facing a developer resource crunch since developers of NT5 are being possibly pulled off to do other things. I would seriously hope that NT5 is released as completely Y2K ready since it wont even be released until after Jan 1 00 (a little joke there with the 00). But didnt we all think Win98 was Y2K ready and viola! it was not. As for your trial point - I would accept your point on that and retract that statement regarding his statement on the trial. Toy
