According to Google the zephyr originally cost 99 and assuming the 1 mil is after lawyer fees and whatever that's gonna be like 150+ each

I didn't read the article so don't sue me if it explains they actually only got 7 dollars at the bottom.

This number is prior to the lawyers taking their cut. If they end up taking a 40% cut that's still $95 a person, so hopefully everyone gets at least a good chunk of their money back

That's more than I got for the class action on the GTX970 Vram lol.

I think I got a check for like 2 dollars on a card that was several hundred at the time haha.
