You could just as validly argue that it must have been a large amount, because if it was small, TomTom would be announcing the amount. In reality, typically in a settlement over this kind of business litigation, if one side wants the terms kept secret, the other side will agree. Often, both sides want it secret. -- --Tim Smith _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
