Have you received a cease and desist letter from Days of Wonder? If not, then it cannot be a legitimate trademark violation. In the US they must defend their own trademark with a lawsuit or threat of one. If you are in Europe then your coun

Try looking for either a laptop or a 2in1 PC and you will have greater success. System76 has some well engineered equipment with Linux preinstalled that is worth purchasing. Use a "Live distro" version on your existing touchscreen

If the shoe fits... "Judaism, Christianity, or Islam" ...all of the above didn't follow the ten commandments. The problem isn't in the list of rules. The ten commandments are very well formed and cover the greatest injus

You do realize that many of the greatest scientific minds and advancements are from people that have a Christian religious background. Some that immediately come to mind are Galileo Galilei, Blaise Pascal, Leonhard Euler, Michael Faraday, C

A better question might be why is a company considered a legal entity or even a technical entity? It has been said that they shouldn't be and that legality should rest with the individual companies' owner. This of course would end
