CALIFORNIANS SHOULD APPLY FOR MICROSOFT VOUCHERS
As part of a lawsuit settlement reached last year, Californians are
being offered $1.1 billion in vouchers from Microsoft. The settlement
covers products bought from February 1995 to December 2001.
Plaintiffs in the lawsuit claimed Microsoft had overcharged
Californians, violating antitrust law. The issue never went to court;
instead, the settlement was reached. The vouchers can be redeemed after
the holders buy computer equipment.
If you live in California and bought Microsoft products, you're
probably eligible. Organizations that bought a lot of software could
collect thousands in vouchers. You can get more details, and apply for
the vouchers, at: http://microsoftcalsettlement.com/
