cloudcomputing.ie is still available if anyones interested.

Its a bit shady by them, only that no one had noticed until now they would have got away with it scott free, then tried to sue others for using the term. I presume now that the cats out of the bag they will lose the trademark claim.
Its like trying to TM virtualization or some other soon to be ubiquitous term before others realise that the wools being pulled.

Shame on you Dell

They should stick to making sure that the 'e' key on their laptops always work correctly rather than trying to steal an already established industry term! (sorry the 'e' key stops working at random intrvals on my dell laptop and it's starting to drive m mad!) Must figure out howm to clean the keyboard...

Kevin : this is probably why your 'e' key is not doing so good.

That's it alright! which is bad news as I am probably going to hav to try and writ without it But good news, I gave it a good poke or two and it seems to be behaving itself better now, it was probably just a crumb from my sarnie or something!

So I have forgiven Dell for the 'e' - but hands off the English language!
