Thanks all,
I am a bit confused about what is considered Trademark and what is
copyrighted. So are "Rhino", "whirlwind" & "Fire prism" all trade
mark?
Is that correct? I guess trademark are names like "Pepsi", "Apple"
etc. While copyright refer to piece of writing (e.g. rules) that you
can copy etc...
Please verify (I am not a lawyer, just a lowly programmer/engineer)
Thanks.
