People were talking about the billion dollars in repair costs being insignificant to MS, but really it's like 1/5 of MS' total yearly net income or 1/12 of their revenue down the drain. I mean they can take it but it's definitely not insignificant.

ahem, 1 billion is 1/5 of MS income last QUARTER. they make about $14 billion a year. probably $17-$18 billion this fiscal year with vista.

EDIT: 1 billion is significant no matter how you look at it.  even if a company makes $100 bln profit 1 bln is still 1 bln.  in 2007 anyway.
