Californians Get More Time in MS Settlement
7 Comments
Californians who have not filed claims for a $1.1 billion settlement now have until January 22 to submit the necessary paperwork. The deadline had previously been January 8, however it was extended after several people reported problems in filling out the paperwork.
The settlement stems from a lawsuit against Microsoft that claimed the company overcharged for its products. Californians will be eligible for vouchers worth $5 to $29 USD per copy of Microsoft Windows, Word or Excel that they own, and could be used towards future purchases of Microsoft software.
