Can anyone speculate (intelligently ;-) on the Sega settlement based on projected sales of Dreamcast?

Try taking what they would have earned from the development money and stretching that out over the full timeframe. This number should easily be under 10M. If the number is over 10M we can take that as evidence of actual wrongdoing (misappropriation of trade secrets) on their part and the payment is hush money.

A realistic number is between 5M and 8M.
