"A teenager who tangled with Microsoft over his [MikeRoweSoft] Internet domain name has donated most of his legal defense fund to a hospice for terminally ill children," reports AP.
"Supporters donated about $8,000 (US$6,000). Rowe kept $1,000 (US$750) to apply to his university education and received $1,300 (US$975) from an eBay auction of his legal papers. Most of those who responded to an Internet poll favored giving the leftover money to charity over making refunds.
"Rowe and Microsoft settled amicably with the software giant agreeing to provide the teen with an Xbox and other gifts, help him get Microsoft certification training and cover the cost of changing the domain name and of redirecting traffic from the old site."
