Good old Intel is up to its old weaselly tricks again and is attempting to register the loop that encloses its Intel Inside legend.
Our take on this is that it must be attempting to prevent people from sticking stuff inside the loop such as Intel Outside, Ugeek Inside, Chipzilla Inside or whatever. This is an interesting trademark application. Can Intel really trademark a squiggle? This is our own trademark which we have registered in Intel Pantone Blue.
