Dell trademarks "Cloud Computing"
Dell has obtained a trademark on the term "Cloud Computing".
http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=77139082
People have been talking about computing in the cloud for years now, and network designers have been using a cloud icon to indicate "services on the internet out there somewhere" for over a decade.
This trademark needs to be killed, it born generic.
