I agree. Only the scummiest of low life would do such a thing. Like
when Microsoft named its new handheld product "Palm PC" in 1998 to
compete with Palm Pilot. When Palm Pilot sued, Microsoft changed the
name to "Palm-Sized PC".
But not to worry. If Microsoft had a few more projects like WinCE,
they'd be out of business.
