If you lived in Iowa and purchased a MS product, or PC with MS products pre-installed, then you might be eligible for the class action. You can fill out a claim online, but hurry up as the deadline is Friday, December 14th. The settlement can get you $16 for each Windows or MS-DOS, $10 for Word, $25 for Excel, and $29 for Office.
Since accepting the position at Innovation First I have driven over 3600 miles. Starting the weekend of Nov 3rd for a house hunting trip and ending Monday the 10th with an exhausting trip with a U-Haul in the rain with bad headlights. We're officially residents of Greenville Texas and look forward to a lengthy stay. If anyone knows where the unpacking gnomes and/or fairies are hanging out these days, please herd them toward my place.
Thanks to everyone who helped me load and unload the truck!
