University hits PeopleSoft with 10M Lawsuit

"The lawsuit, filed Jan. 30 in an Ohio state court, claims that the student administration applications were 'vaporware' when the project began in 1997 and that the module for managing financial aid remains unusable even now. Through the attorney general, Cleveland State is charging PeopleSoft with fraud, breach of contract, negligent misrepresentation and four other counts." computerworld.com

First time I have come across a lawsuit of this magnitude coming from the public sector. Peoplesoft have been marketing aggressively in the UK Higher Education sector - I wonder how this might affect their marketing strategy?
