A friend had 'Penguin.com' for several years, then Penguin Books sent him a letter and told him to turn it over to them without compensation. Scared him enough, so he did.
Deep pockets could have fought and probably won, but IMHO the software is the focus not the name. The name is just nice to keep the same for continuity sake. It also lets big companies think that they can get away with whatever they want. But unless someone is willing to pay to fight in court, it doesn't matter. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Keep Your Developer Skills Current with LearnDevNow!
