How do you handle trademarks for other companies' products in your
documentation? Do you include the trademark or registered trademark
symbol in the text? Do you include a page that lists the trademarks of
all the products you mention and who owns them? Do you include a blanket
statement somewhere that says brand and product names are the trademarks
or registered trademarks of their respective owners and leave it at
that?

We're writing an in-house style guide and aren't sure how to resolve
this issue.
