Comments on: BarnesandNoble.com loses round in trademark case

Promoting half-priced books could end up costing the bookseller more than it bargained for, if a rival has its way.

half baked

unless you've left something critical out of this story the judges ruling is stupid (for lack of a stronger word). No reaonable person could possibly find the term "half price" as anything but a common term. Maybe the real question given today;s business ethics is does either comapany actually sell their books at half price or is this just another case of "free"

Common term?

Be honest... is the word "windows" really any LESS a common term than "half-price"?

Or "word"?

Just a sad sign of sick times.
