The payouts for each individual product are small. But if we can  
just fill up the list with every known version of DOS and Windows  
and other various MS products to reach close to $250, then that  
is not too bad a deal.  I wouldn't have the receipts for much of  
*anything* over 10 years ago.

Have you finished your claim?

"Court-approved legal fees of roughly $100 million will be  
deducted from the settlement, as will the cost of ads. "

The lawyers are big winners here.


"Any money that isn't claimed will be returned to Microsoft."

We can't let THAT happen!
