Re: G3/Mac OS X Settlement

[Wayne Schneck]

I received the full settlement report from the lawyers. As a mac 
supporter, I threw the hole thing in the trash. Class action suits 
benefit the law offices that file more than the actually participants 
since they get there cut from the over-all settlement amount, or their 
high fees are paid on top of the settlement. These law offices 
regularly seek ways to design a class action and then lobby for 
participants.

There are some legitimate suits filed, but most of the ones I come 
across are questionable if there was actually any wrong doing by the 
corporation they are seeking damages from. In many cases, it is easier 
and cheaper for the company to settle instead of fight the suit.

I did not use OSX regularly on my Wallstreet, but purchased it with the 
desire to trial it and learn it at my own pace, using OS9 for actual 
work. I will not add to Apple's cost for this one, since, in the end, 
we all pay for it in higher costs to the company.
