I don't know how many people noticed the post from Mark Balzern <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> of WorkGroup Solutions to c.o.l.a, regarding the letter he received claiming that Linux is trademarked, and inviting him to contact the owner of the trademark to discuss payment.
If you're like me, you more or less wrote it off as a just some crank trying to scam someone. I had a nasty feeling though, and after getting my wife to do some research, it looks like it's very real, and the name Linux is, according to the US (and possibly other) legal system(s), someone else's property. Please read my post to c.o.l.a. for a little more information.
