Subject:Windows now registered TM From:Richard Dimock <red -at- ELSEGUNDOCA -dot- ATTGIS -dot- COM> Date:Fri, 30 Jun 1995 12:36:30 PDT
I just got the "word" ;) on the Windows trademark.
(It went to my company May 17, and just now filtered down
to us at the rubber/road interface.
As of Jan 10, 1995, use:
Windows^(R) (Thatsa superscript circle R)
Windows^(R) 95
and the footnote legend:
"Windows is a registered trademark of Microsoft in the U.S. and other
countries."
BUT Windows NT is still only noted as
Windows NT^TM (Thatsa superscript TM)
Microsoft requests these be changed in your NEXT :) printing.
Come to think of it, this might be an OLD topic that Newbie
is repeating. Heck w/it. Deliver button!
