T2K,

Nothing wrong with wishful thinking.
The only flaw in the logic is AOL has Netscape, and the consortium of AOL-SUN-NSCP has been tackling MSFT for some time now.
I don't think MSFT will be so forgiving, after all, AOL needs Comcast, not MSFT, and we all know how Softee feels about NSCP.
I just don't see MSFT running to bale AOL out of the broadband hole that they have gotten themselves into, and I own AOL shares.

"The U.S. District Court judge in the case, Thomas Penfield Jackson, may have chilled settlement talks when he announced March 31 that he would issue findings of facts before deciding whether Microsoft had violated antitrust laws.

Jackson's announcement of that procedure ''takes the pressure off them settling sooner,'' Whyman said. ''If you're Microsoft, you have no reason to settle until you have damaging findings of fact.''

- I think the Repubs are going to cut the legs out from under the sick, lying, Clintonistas at the Justice Dept before long.
