     I rather doubt that TNF of Theo have the money to fight a court
battle; therefore, BSDI doesn't need to win a suit, they merely need to
threaten.  Legal bullying is a common tactic.

     In any event, the press release simply said that BSD is a
registered trademark.  It didn't say who owned it.  My guess would be
UCB.
