I would be simply devastated if the Trademark Office decided that Wal-Mart owed the french dude some $1Billion in back copyright/trademark infringment penalties (all because they decided, much like Microsoft, to take credit for someone else's work). Couldn't happen to a nicer Borg-entity/ corporation
