So, if they had sued him 2.5 years ago, you would have supported them? Just

It's because of thinking like this that most companies would have sued him
long ago...

PS: I thought it was just common sense, atleast around here, that using
"lego" in the name of anything was not a smart thing to do. I'm sure that
the OS would have done just as good had it been named NogOS or something.

| (...) In the US, at least, a trademark *must* be defended, or the company loses it. If legOS does, in fact, infringe on their trademark, they would have had to defend it pretty quickly or that usage would pass into the public domain. Or something (...)
