Unless it needs 3D support to work and has other unnecessary bloat, I
fail to see the resemblance.
It appears to be a clear-cut case of market confusion, which is exactly what trademark law is intended to prevent.
Groupon’s Trade mark request for ‘Gnome’ for computer software etc. etc.
Don’t know about the USA but within the EU, Groupon do not have a hope of ever obtaining ‘G-NOME’ for computer systems, computer software, computer applications and similar.
Mad but typical big (USA) business arrogance mentality.
