[Martin Bonham]

In Digest, Vol 13, Issue 42 "Michael Bauminger" <lmblist at mikebomb.com>
was kind enough to inform us that 
> Western Digital Corporation has settled a class action 
> lawsuit brought against it by agreeing, among other things, 
> to provide free backup software to anyone that bought one of 
> its drives between March 22, 2001 and Feb 15, 2006.

Interesting, according to that I am eligible for some free software, 
lets go get it.

Darn, it, I think that the above quote is missing an "in the USA"

Unfortunately, the way that the long form website page reads to me, I 
am not eligible to submit because although I bought an eligible 
drive, I didn't do so in the USA.
