It's worse than nothing and a slap in the face Absolutely correct.It is worse than get nothing. You should have seen the face of Bristol's lawyer on TV. It looked like he just got a "slap in the face"!! (sorry--it is nasty but i could not resist)

>A $1 award in a civil suit is the equivalent to tipping a waiter or waitress a penny. It's worse than nothing and a slap in the face. It implies bad service or a meritless lawsuit.< And when you consider how much moola MSFT has stashed in the bank, that $1 is probably like 1/1000 of a penny from an average Joe or Jane's pocket to tip the bad service [meritless lawsuit] with. I'd say then that Bristol lawyers must be hiding in shame somewhere.
