A long time ago Apple Computer released an operating system called Mac OS9. Microware, the makers of OS-9, sued for trademark infringement and lost. I was quite surprised. It seemed like classic trademark dilution to me.
Then a few years later Apple released Mac OS X. In Mac OS X, they included an Application Framework called Cocoa. That’s awfully close to the nick name of my favorite computer: The CoCo. Hmm, that’s suspicious.
Now I learn Apple is creating a new JavaScript engine called Nitro. Very similar to the OS-9 retooling called NitrOS-9. Well, now I am calling it: Apple hates Color Computers!
