Micron seems like a bad naming choice...maybe it predates the manufacturer?
Rochus•1h ago
It's the abbreviation of Micro Oberon, therefore a quite obvious naming choice; there is no real risk of confusion with commercial offers under this name; it's also a common name in science.
kragen•1h ago
Wouldn't be surprising if the computer/RAM company had registered the trademark in some countries for the field of software.
Rochus•42m ago
They surely have better things to do than worry about what I call my programming language.
kragen•36m ago
If they have a trademark they don't defend, they can lose it.
Rochus•31m ago
I think we can skip this discussion.
kragen•27m ago
Okay.
