(Account no longer active) Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Yeah but why did Microsoft have to make the Windows 1.0 and Windows 8 logo so easily copy-able so anyone could draw it up in Paint? :p Microsoft themselves probably designed it in Paint (Windows 1.0 logo in MacPaint).

Salutary7 Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 This isn't a copyright issue, so it can be virtually identical. This is a trademark. You have consider whether this leads to consumer confusion... And since almost none of the customer base really knows what the win1.0 logo is, its probably a non-issue.

.Neo Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I'm pretty sure I saw a painting with a similar layout once from the 50s or 60s in the Amsterdam Stedelijk Museum. Undoubtedly Microsoft copied it.

f0rk_b0mb Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 It's *just* an icon. /s Yeah I see the resemblance there. That's ridiculous nobody can come up with their own ideas.
