Lindows/Windows Trademark Suit Heads To
Court

Lindows/Windows Trademark Suit Heads To
Court 11/13/2003 01:37 PM
Fortune's David Kirkpatrick is looking at the Microsoft suit against Lindows.com accusing them of trademark violation. He talks to Lindows CEO Michael Robertson, and buys into his arguments completely... until he speaks to a Microsoft representative. The arguments seem to be all over the place, but the one point that is most important is whether or not people will be confused by a product called Lindows, and think it was created by Microsoft. Microsoft claims to have a study saying that 18% of people would be confused. Is that enough to force a name change? Meanwhile, Kirkpatrick points out that the folks at Microsoft should probably be more worried about the actual desktop Linux offerings that are coming along, rather than what anyone calls their products.

Lindows and Microsoft go to trial

Lindows and Microsoft go to trial 05/26/2004 10:48 AM
What's in a name? Well, if you're Microsoft that's exactly the question you want answered by a jury in reference to the term "windows." The question is central to Microsoft's argument that the name "Lindows" is too much like Windows, the Microsoft operating system. The only problem is that Microsoft wants the jury to decide if "windows" is a generic term today, not before the Windows operating system was released in November 1985. Unfortunately for Microsoft, District Court Judge Coughenour chose the latter in a ruling on February 10th.

Microsoft is preparing to go to court in Minnesota this week to fight allegations that it abused its Windows monopoly to overcharge customers in the state for its software. As part of its defense, Microsoft may call Bill Gates and Steve Ballmer to testify, the company says. Unless a last minute settlement is reached between the software vendor and lawyers representing Minnesota consumers, opening arguments in the case are scheduled to begin mid-week, Microsoft spokesperson Jim Desler says. The court has allotted three months for the trial, he says.

Again

Microsoft Asks Court To Fine Lindows Yet
Again 05/11/2004 04:32 PM
One thing you can definitely say about Michael Robertson is that he knows how to use controversy and lawsuits to get publicity. After first losing the trademark dispute with Microsoft over the Lindows name in Benelux, he changed the product name to Lin---s. This didn't make Microsoft happy, so they changed the name again to Linspire. However, it appears Microsoft is still not satisfied and is asking the court to fine them again - which must delight Robertson for the publicity he's getting. However, when you look at the details, this move by Microsoft seems particularly petty (though, it must be admitted, switching the name to Lin---s was fairly petty as well). Here, the complaint is that in the copyright notice on the Linspire page, it still says that Linspire is owned by the company Lindows. Microsoft is claiming that this will confuse people - which is a huge stretch. The judge should toss this out. Meanwhile, Microsoft and Lindows/Linspire should stop wasting time over things like this and spend their money and effort on things that actually make their products more useful.
