NVidia lawsuit for Vista Users

AKA People are dumb.

It won't fly.

i agree --- that no one is rich to take on large corporations--- but class action does afford opportunity if one of lessor class should take on a large corporation.

The question that remains --- is it valid suit ---- and is it fault of microsoft or nvidia --- in other words if microsoft gave certain spec that nvida relied on and nividia relied on such specs --- then who is to blame.

I dont know what is wrong --- but to me something is wrong with vista when such multimillion dollar companies such as nividia and intuit (quickbooks version 2007) has problem with vista. Maybe ati cards ok with vista -- but does not help me at all as my business software will not run on vista or will run with big performance hit---- this is my beef --- and will continue to be my beef until vista resolves problem --- maybe this forum does not relate to business community --- or maybe this forum is only for vista and i am lost --- this be as it may --- i can only offer what vista does for me --- which is nothing.

Hence the Class-Action law suit. A class action has hundreds of people combining together under the same problems. Generally, class action law suits are strong because there are so many people backing a single cause against a single entity.

Had it been one person, it wouldn't fly. Now, with so many people saying the same issue.. that's the catch. But, they have to have enough people sign up to proceed.. that's why the website is there to see a lawsuit can exist - opening line of the webpage.

You might pay $200 to join in, sue, win, get back $15 out of the $5,000,000 lawsuit because the other 1,000,000 people who signed up complained.

Class action law suits won't make you rich, they effectively make an entity do what the group of people demand.

Hmm...after reading your post I went back and re-read dsharp9000's two posts in this thread. I didn't see where he posted that he believed/thought he was forced to upgrade.

What I read is a person unhappy with a product he purchased...

Unhappy or not, I didn't see where he posted that he believed/thought he was forced to upgrade.

No, he didn't make it clear in this thread... but I can see where he was headed from this post in another thread:

He seems to be under the impression that just because new patches for an OS aren't released anymore, then that OS becomes useless. It doesn't matter if the OS isn't being patched anymore... as long as it's running everything you want the way you want... there is NO push to upgrade.
