Blue,
Depends on what the name is, I guess. For instance, do you think if someone had a porn site making fun of small, flaccid genitals and called it Microsoft that it wouldn't be worth a whole lot of money to a certain company right here in the Seattle area? If this other place had it first?

Yeah, if they had it first, but didn't they make one of the first browsers too? lol And some people have actually made lots of money, supposedly, doing that, registering all kinds of names before they were taken, hoping to sell them down the road for big bucks.

Nowadays though, that porn site would be worth a lot of money to Microsoft. Since they have trademark registration lists a mile long, and also own over 24,000 or so domain names. Good luck with the lawyers.

Listen to BlueTurbit songs:
