Apple’s Mighty Mouse is the mouse that comes with every new iMac or MacPro. Apple licensed the name Mighty Mouse from CBS. All would be well and good except that the trademark Mighty Mouse has been awarded to Man & Machine, Inc. instead. Lex Friedman:
Since Apple was licensing use of the Mighty Mouse name from CBS, and now CBS can’t quite do that anymore, Apple has only two options left: The company can try to license the name from Man & Machine, or come up with a brand new moniker altogether.
His suggestion for a new Apple multi-touch mouse?
