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

    (May 17, 2005 - 4:21 PM)

    Check your facts a little closer...Kellogg definitely does have a trademark on Tony the Tiger. Just like Hasbro has a trademark on Tiger Electronics. Both of which have been around a lot longer than TigerDirect.

    I also wasn't saying everybody had to run everything on a Mac, or Linux, or Windows, or whatever other OS out there...I was only making the point that blanket statements such as the one in the above always come from people who have never even touched anything besides a Windows machine. Otherwise, they would know better than to make statements like that. That's just painfully obvious to anybody who knows there's more to the computer world than the world's most commercially successful virus known as Windows...

    As they say, ignorance is bliss...And FUD like this soon follows thereafter to protect the ignorant from believing anything else...

    Correction...Apple computers work perfectly fine with any program written for Mac OS X, BSD Unix, X-Windows, and M$ Windows if you want to install Virtual PC. Anybody who has ever used a Mac already knows this, those who have never used a Mac usually take wild guesses like the one above this reply.

    If my memory serves me correctly (which I'm sure it does) "Tony the Tiger" has been around a lot longer than TigerDirect. Sounds to me like TigerDirect got just what they deserved. They're just trying to make up for lost sales they've suffered because newegg.com has better prices than TigerDirect has.
