Phoenix To Change Name

Posted by Hemos on from the way-up-in-the-sky-where-the-little-birds-play dept.

e8johan writes "Phoenix, the Mozilla-based web browser, is forced to change name. The new name has not yet been decided, but it is being discussed . The reason is that the BIOS manufacturer Phoenix Technologies dislikes the trademark infrigment. Next week version 0.5 will be released, with a new name."

    You never made a decent BIOS anyway.

    It can take a lifetime to gain a customer and only a moment to lose one. Adobe should be good company for you. Keep up the good work.

    Oh, and how do you "logon to the internet"? Did you write your own TCP/IP stack? Soldered your own ethernet card?

    No? But you filled in your IP's server adresses or enabled the DHCP service? Damn, good work, dude!

    Puhlease, get down off your high horses.
