Wonder when Apple will be taking Unsanity to court to stop them using the words Mighty Mouse? ;-) A great little proggy it is too.

Mighty Mouse is in fact Unsanity invented name/product. It goes far earlier than Apple one. Really weird but remember "K" :)

It doesn't matter if Unsanity used the name earlier (if that were the case, then the cartoon would take precedence), but whether they bothered to register the name as a trademark. If they didn't, they may be SOL.

If they didn't register it they don't own it, but my understanding is that it then falls into "public domain," and anyone can use it.

Apple unlikely to sue. However Viacom could as Apple are using the Mighty Mouse trademark on License from what I remember. :)

THIS IS ONE STUPID COMMENT!

Unsanity's Mighty Mouse was out LONG BEFORE Apple's hardware mouse.

Unsanity is the one that could take Apple to court.
