Am I a missing something or are they just ripping off the Anandtech logo completely? Check out the center of page three. 150W MicroATX case for $19.99.

I'm not sure what that means, but I was pointing out the logo more than some sale. If I did something wrong here, I'm sorry. If someone was using my company logo, I'd want to know.

I would have scanned it, but I'm at work and I'm not going to be able to scan it till I get home.

He thought you meant that it was an ad on the forums. Since he subscribes(so do I :D), we don't see any ads, hence asking for a link :)

hmm looks like some company ripped Anand off. I'm sure a quick cease-and-desist letter will get it fixed.

It'd be cool to have Anandtech case stickers though...I'd put one on my case.

Or maybe a "Powered by Anandtech".

Talk about a ripoff if I've ever seen one.:Q I guess AnandTech Legal is going to get a good workout today.:)

Interesting. I must say that even given the small size of the logo in the ad, it looks more like anand's logo than your companies. very odd. :Q

Yeah, even though the scan isn't too clear, I can definitely see the big block A with the orange brush across. Signature AT.

I would SO buy AT bezel stickers! Maybe they could be offered for purchase or as a special gift for new subscribers?

the A looks exactly like the AT A.... hmm I'd blame this on h4x0rs or people who aren't creative enough to make their own logos...

I really didn't mean to cause a stir, I was just hopping Anand was pimping cases now. Sigh.

BTW - We've actually got silver cases in my shop with the Internet Explorer logo on the face and the side panels. It's a perfect scaled up replica. Wonder if I should contact MS.

25 years huh?

Maybe your company served as an inspiration for the current AT logo? :p
