    Is GW silently laughing at its customers?

    "How crappy can we make a flier/speeder and still get people to buy it?"

    Having lived in both upstate NY and the Bay Area, I can say, the Bay Area will spoil you. Meanwhile, the entire mid-Hudson of NY region is serviced by basically only two or three game stores (or at...

    What are you differing on?
    I was discussing purpose. The interpreation in this case happens to neatly align with the stated purpose of US IP law. That the law in question is UK law isn't what I was...

    From what I saw of the summary judgements, CHS is winning most (not all) contention points on trademarks so far and may continue to do so. Contrary to GWs position, you ARE often allowed to display...

    I don't think you're reading my comment as intended. He interpreted the law as is. The result of that is that incentives are preserved. This keeps Judge Kennelley's interpretation firmly in line with...
