yeah, I wonder if they'll sue if you will make a company called shitows because it sounds similar and might be violating their trademark.

But if so, why is Microsoft sueing them? IIRC, M$ are suing for trademark violation. If that is right, then it does not matter whether Lindows does anything at all or not. M$ are simply saying that there is something calling itself an OS whose name differs from Windows by one letter. M$ are in fact obliged to take action since otherwise they are at risk of losing their Windows trademark. There was a similar suit recently involving Adobe and Killustrator (What is it called now? Kontours?). -- Oleg Goldshmidt | [EMAIL PROTECTED] "If it ain't broken, it has not got enough features yet." ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] ================================================================To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
