Microsoft settlement: The Real Deal

| Microsoft settled the suit back in 2005 that alleged they engaged in 
| anti-trust and consumer fraud practices from 1994 to 2004.

| If you purchased any products made by the company during that time, you were 
| able to sign up for this settlement.  
| 
| Now, finally, you can get reimbursed for new microsoft products you buy.
