  1. Comment - Nintendo Revolution Named 'Wii'

    "Wii"?! What an absolutely silly and unremarkable name. What are the marketing drones thinking?!

  2. Comment - Apple Gets Win in 'Tiger' Trademark Suit

    Respectfully, you don't know what you're talking about.

    The quote that you provided is from the judge's decision on the request made by TigerDirect for a "preliminary injunction" which, had it been granted, would have forced Apple to stop using the "Tiger" name UNTIL THE ACTUAL CASE WAS ACTUALLY DECIDED SOMETIME IN THE FUTURE. The judge HAS NOT determined who is right and who is wrong; rather, he has RIGHTLY and SIMPLY weighed the potential damage to Apple if he DID issue the preliminary injunction vs. the potential damage to TigerDirect if he DIDN'T.

    What this means is that Apple MAY continue to use the "Tiger" name UNTIL such time as TigerDirect actually files suit and a judgement on their complaint is issued. When will this happen? My opinion: NEVER - TigerDirect doesn't have a paw to stand on. :)
