The analyst updated his estimates to reflect the acquisition but continues to view Akamai's risk/reward as "especially appealing," saying the market is factoring in lower revenue growth already. 03/08/13 Wedge Partners 03/08/13 Credit Suisse 03/06/13 Citigroup 03/06/13 Barclays See Street Research during your Free Trial	25 Feb
