How important is your domain name? Don't you print it all over
your business cards and letter head? Don't you tell everyone
what your domain name is? Most of the time your domain name is
your company name. If it's not your company name, it's probably
just as important. Most companies guard their company name and
logos with trade marks. You can guard your .NET domain by
registering it. Many companies have already done that. Look at
IBM they have register both IBM.COM and IBM.NET. Many other
companies are in disputes over their .NET domains. COKE.NET and
MICROSOFT.NET are both on hold at InterNIC, probably in court
some where trying to find their way back to their rightful owners.

Gee whiz, this was written by a first-year marketing major.
I mean, the rest of the page is okay, I suppose, but this
paragraph? Gee whiz.
just my opinions, not those of my employer....
