Not a bad idea. Not the infringement issue. Just
the idea of suing over a fan. You go and spend
several thousand dollars on switching equipment
and the vendor goes and puts a $0.10 fan in it to
"Keep it kewl". THe fan creators over the weekend
and you come back to a pile of goo.
Of course, you could have insane grad students that believe the fan is "too loud" and go into your switch and clip it out.
