Agreed.

It would be like me sueing every company that uses the Red 'X' in their Extreme logo.
That logo was first designed and put in the public domain over 15 years ago, for me by a guy called Andrew Nadolski (who is actually quite famous in the UK).

Since then Extreme has become a bit passe. But also hundreds of companies have started using a brightly coloured Red X as part of their Extreme corporate name / logo.

Admittedly I never trademarked the image, but copyright laws would still apply in certain domains.

For me to run around suing everyone who uses the word Extreme or the red letter 'X' would be silly and you'd all laugh at me.

So let's all laugh at Apple Corps.

EDIT - And the other person who voted for Yoko and Paul. I am going to find you. Really!
