100 *million*?  Are they aware of what "contempt of court" means? :)

Heck, they could *cancel* the "E Disk Array MC256" and simply
introduce the "E Disk Array XP256" for a lot less!

Wait..*I* know what happened...HP's been admiring Microsoft for
quite awhile now and they must have hired some of those
Microsoft trial lawyers who are working on the government monopoly case :)
