Some kid named "Mike Rowe" registered "www.mikerowesoft.com" and now Microsoft is taking legal action:
http://www.cnn.com/2004/TECH/internet/01/19/offbeat.mike.rowe.soft.ap/index.html
I think that he should inist for "An authographed picture of Bill Gates" and a voucher for 10 free hours of Microsoft technical support...

Muhahaha thats great i hope microsoft losses unless of course he is using to display popup and other annoying crap in which case I hope he rotts.
-
I hope he wins too, this country is just getting so crazy!
-
Bet ya MS drops that legal firm soon.
-
If that is actually his name and he does write some software, even if it is really simple, I hope MS loss bigtime.

I agree, this is just like McDonalds coming down on businesses with the name McDonald in them in Scotland. All he should need to do is to place a prominent link to MS's front page for anyone that accidently get to his page. I do find it funny that MS hadn't nailed down such an obvious domain long ago.

Well looks like he settled out of court for a bunch of goodies including an X-Box from microsoft I guess everybody ends up happy.
