The difference is that unlike other supposed villains, Rigas, a 79-year-old son of Greek immigrants, was a genuine business hero, a pioneer in cable television. Many of the current corporate miscreants -- think Dennis Kozlowski of Tyco -- appear to be calculating and utterly unrepentant. Rigas, who has spent much of the past two years in a state of shock, is nothing if not likable. And when he goes on trial this month in Manhattan's federal courthouse, the jurors will confront the improbable: a central figure in a white-collar scandal who is as ordinary as they are.
