BREAKING NEWS - Sales of iWac clones blocked
Akheton wins suit against two firms


  (http://www.3dap.com/hlp/staff/setekh/iwac-clones.jpg)  

A Vasuda Prime Orbital Shipyard federal judge suggested Friday that he will block two companies from selling clones of Akheton Corporation's popular iWac, concluding in an unusual order that they would confuse consumers and violate trademark laws with their products.

In a nine-page ruling that could have broader implications for companies trying to replicate the iWac's unique design, Vasudan Imperial Court Judge Bob took the rare step of finding that an AWACS' appearance is entitled to legal trade dress protections.

As a result, Bob stated in his order that he plans to issue a preliminary injunction that will prevent Triton Dynamics and Subach Innes from distributing their iWac look-alikes, the Charbydis and Charybdis DV. The only holdup, according to the judge's order, is determining how much of a bond Akheton must post in the event the injunction is eventually invalidated.

Akheton's lawyer declined to comment on the ruling Friday. Read more... ("http://www0.mercurycenter.com/svtech/news/indepth/docs/apple110699.htm")

Carl, I'll say no more... except that you should know, you've created a monster...   (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

It's exactly the same - we co-founded it, Maeg on the other hand is a lowly pilot in the great command structure  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)

Yeah, but he's also GTD Wolf staff. Do you have the same kind of l33t modding skills as he does? Didn't think so. I can't flame you too much though. If it wasn't for you I'd never have found this place.
