Microsoft Trial Will Resume May 10 Or Later
By David Lawsky

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The judge in the Microsoft antitrust trial set out a schedule Wednesday to resume the trial no sooner than May 10, while the software giant and the government showed a new seriousness about settlement talks.

A statement made on the courthouse steps by the government's lead lawyer, standing alongside Microsoft lawyers, said both sides agreed they must curb public discussion to hold productive settlement talks.

Absent a settlement, the trial that started last year looks likely to continue for many months more.

I do not think it is a shame at all, since it shows the beautiful possibilities of capitalism. Case has shown how well a company can succeed when the PR goes under the skin of the people and the street.
IMHO, if Greenspan would not have rescued the Capital Growth Fund, a lot of even more interesting possibilities would have occurred for the small investor than the ultrahot Internet stocks.(The fat lady has not sung yet, though...)

PS. I am aiming for a short stretched out in time, with a complete cover buy around 2002-2003.
