Re: name copyrights



Actually, I believe Intel managed to copyright "386" but hasn't tried
that since. The way I heard it, the "Duetto" that kept Alfa from using
the name was a cookie from a company called "Milano". The other good
one is that the Fiat sports car from the 50's with a V8 engine was
called the "8V" because they were afraid Ford had "V8" trademarked.
