That's pretty funny :D

If they win maybe they'll share the money (since it is a class action suit, after all), like everyone who has ever bought a hard drive can send in the reciept and get part of the settlement.
That would be awsome.

its not the money its the fact that microsoft has to pay the bill that clinches it for me... ok so 1.1 billion wouldnt really hurt them but still i like the thought of them having to pay for ONE of their mistakes

Microsoft? I thought they'd be suing places like dell, hp, maxtor, western digital etc that actually make hds and systems.

Why would microsoft pay for hard drives? Wouldn't it more likely be one of these companies?

Dell, Gateway, Hewlett-Packard, IBM, Sharp, Sony and Toshiba
