That's a pretty disgusting story if you believe all you read. didn't this<br>
happen ages ago with macdonalds.com ?? iirc an old-timer (Mr MacDonald)<br>
ran a hardware store that had been in his family for years. Mickey D's<br>
tried to get the domain off him via the courts and the courts threw it out<br>
since he was using his own name and posed no commercial threat. I think<br>
Mickey D's ending paying a LOT of money to buy the domain off him.<br>
