The Acorn Computers trademark was licensed in 2006 from French company
Aristide & Co Antiquaire De Marques and obtained the
acorncomputers.co.uk domain name through Nominet's Dispute Resolution
Service (DRS) who ruled that the domain name should be transferred to
the new Acorn from computer enthusiast Roy Johnson, after contending
that the "use of [Acorn Computers'] company name is illegal and has
caused much confusion and continues to do so which is detrimental to
[Acorn] and extremely misleading".
