I asked that today and they are checking with the
legal department. My feeling is that this is going to
open a whole can of worms since the name of the
software is exactly the same as a household
entertainment name. I have a feeling that it didn't
occur to some people until now. Don't ask me what it
is since I don't know who else is getting this and I'd
rather not be responsible for a pre-emptive strike by
deeper pockets.

Let the games begin.
