Microsoft Corp. of Seattle, currently valued at $300 billion US, wants Mike Rowe to give up www.mikerowesoft.com as his Internet domain name. The company claims copyright infringement of its name.

Through its law firm in Canada, Microsoft has offered him $10 US – what Rowe paid last August to register the domain.

Did M$ copyright the phoenetic pronunciation of their name?

We should raise the terror level higher. Someone’s trying to take over American business.

Nope. I’m not even from that side of Canada.

When are they going to copyright what everyone calls them: Microcrap?

Gemini: Ever since when have I ever heard of copyrighting phonetic sounds?
Joey: I’ve heard of it. drops a lamp on Gemini’s foot.
Gemini: OW!!!
Joey: I’ve just copyrighted the ow sound like, two hours ago.

Gemini: By the way. I think he should be innocent. Microsoft and Mikerowesoft are two diiferent words. two different things.

M$ continues to grow more pathetic.

You sir, are out of your fucking mind. Without coca-cola, there would be darkness and chaos.

Anyway, yea, microsoft. Woo!

I’d go over to linux if it weren’t for the fact that most of my fave PC games most likely wouldn’t work. Most likely, at least, I’m not a linux expert.
