After receiving mail from Keith Petersen, I followed up on my comments regarding the trademarking of the work "ARC". I talked to a person (name and phone number available upon request.) who is very involved with DATAPOINT and their ARCNET configurations, and he informed me that the Attached Resource Computer is a combination of hardware and software, and in fact, they have a SOFTWARE PROGRAM used with ARCNET called "ARC". He is also going to be contacting the legal department at the DATAPOINT headquarters in Texas on Monday Morning (9/26) to inform them of the lawsuits currently pending between SEA and PKWARE, and determine if DATAPOINT wants to pursue legal action of their own. I will post another message when I find out what the results of their conversations were. -- Jeff Troeger @ Citicorp(+)TTI 3100 Ocean Park Blvd. (213) 450-9111, ext. 3153 Santa Monica, CA 90405 {philabs,randvax,csun}!ttidca!ttidcb!troeger or troeger@ttidca
