Stanley Chesley, a prominent attorney who has previously led legal battles against cigarette makers, breast implant manufacturers and other large industries, filed the class-action suits in U.S. District Court in Columbus and in state court in Cincinnati.

"We have estimates that consumers have been collectively overcharged $10 billion" by Microsoft, Chesley said in a telephone interview.

A victory in the federal court suit filed in Columbus, Ohio, could result in an award that is triple the $10 billion cost figure, Chesley said.


Gee, old Stanley neglected to mention the standard 25 to 33% contingency fee he anticipates receiving (do the math) for helping the poor overcharged consumers. A true selfless Robin Hood.

The worms crawl in, the worms crawl out.....
