On August 2, 2007, an individual named David W. Liu filed to protect the trademark Google PC. There are several men named David Liu that Mork found in his research. One is an investment banker. One is CEO of TheKnot.com. Another is Sr. VP of AOL Portals. But a Spoke profile identifies a David Liu as Legal Counsel for Google, Inc.
Its been a long while since there have been any substantial rumors about the Google PC, so Mork thought it was worth mentioning this latest discovery.
UPDATE: The word “Google” in the window of the building address listed in the trademark application seems to be a watermark used in the Google’s Street View images. Mork apologizes for the mistake. However, the trademark application (link above) still invites speculation. Watermark = no. Trademark = yes!
