Re: Trademarks for Other Companies' Products

FWIW,
If the trademarks are really _registered_ trademarks (i.e. registered
with the US
Patent and Trademark Office), the symbol should be the circled "R", and
*not*
the TM symbol.  The TM symbol is supposed to be used forn marks that a
company is claiming as trademarks but which have not yet gone through
the
registration process.

Not a lawyer, but having read quite a lot on trademarks...
