Name lawsuit prompts AppleSoup to become Flycode
Article Abstract:
AppleSoup, an Internet start-up that offers 'copyright-friendly' content sharing technology, has decided to change its name rather than face a suit filed by Apple Computer for the unauthorized use of the Apple identity. The board decided to adopt the name Flycode, which reflects the Internet company's audience composed of 18- to 24-year-old male college students with a predilection for pop culture and computers.
