Seagate什麼時候敗訴了 
硬碟廠正因為沒在外盒註明是用什麼進位算的,所以您怎麼告都告不倒它
難不成因為您會告油漆公司綠油漆外面標示不清,因為環境是紅燈下看起來是黑的嗎?
還是您要告油漆公司沒在綠色油漆外面註明「本油漆所謂綠色定義是在白色可見光下」
或是去告麵店沒註明「本店對於大碗的定義,是指和小碗比起來比較大」,讓您以為應該大到用臉盆裝才是大碗?

正因為外盒單位計算標示不清可能誤導消費者所以被告、告不告的贏是另外的事。
你怎能確定美國佬不會拿油漆的事上法院?甚至還有人在賭場賭傾家蕩產控告賭場未善盡勸止義務

美國佬能告的多的、別把自認理所當然的事全套在美國佬頭上。
澳洲還發生過電腦預裝Windows不能卸除折價讓消費者一狀告上法院的案子。
當然、這在台灣消費者權益被高度漠視一切被當作理所當然的情況、實在像天方夜譚、是不是?
Seagate to refund some hard-drive buyers
The false advertising and unfair business practices lawsuit, filed in 2005, accuses Seagate of misleading consumers about the storage capabilities of its devices, promising seven per cent more capacity than the devices are actually able to deliver.
The plaintiffs, suing on behalf of all affected Seagate customers, allege that Seagate's marketing was deceptive because it used the decimal definition of the capacity term "gigabyte," which indicates one billion bytes of capacity, instead of the binary definition used by operating systems, which translates that measurement into 1.07 billion bytes, a difference of seven per cent.
Seagate did not admit to any wrongdoing as part of the settlement. Under the agreement, the company will include specific language on its hard drive packaging and marketing materials warning that storage capacity might be lower because of the different measurement methods.
無論是敗訴還是庭外和解、看來結果Seagate並不風光--得折讓金額給部分時期的消費者。
不光Seagate、還一票廠商牽涉另一樁一樣的訴訟案件
Size Dose Metter
A group of computer owners has filed a lawsuit against some of the world's biggest makers of personal computers, claiming that their advertising deceptively overstates the true capacity of their hard drives.
The lawsuit, which seeks class action status, was filed earlier this week in Los Angeles Superior Court against Apple Computer, Dell, Gateway, Hewlett-Packard, IBM, Sharp, Sony and Toshiba.
去罵死他們吧、白爛何其多、是嗎

另外案件是在美國發生、訴訟雙方都是美國佬、這麼激動的幫他們找理由好像太狗拿耗子多管閒事了點
無論結論是誰獲勝、看不出這樣的爭辯有任何意義--除非台灣已經有用戶打算這麼幹。
