Well, at least Intel proved that the EU settlement against them didn't completely break their piggy bank. I will make the obvious statement that I hate when we reward assholish stuff like owning a "word". Can't we just all get along, share words, and plant pansies throughout the universe together?

That seems like a really vague term to copyright. That's like saying I made a van that is really small, so I'm going to call it a Minivan and trademark it.
@Thao: well, it does work that way. Except when you sit on your butt while others start usign it. Then it becomes generic and you lose the right to use it. Which is why occassionally a big company will have to sue for some little guy and everyone thinks they're picking on the little guy -- but really they haev no hoice or when a lartge competitor uses the name the judge will say they didn't guard the name.

Is "sub-notebook" taken?
Oh, it is? And it describes the thing? Great.
