Poor choice in name.. and how they can TM lightwave is beyond me. LightWave is a registered trademark of NewTek Inc.

You can ™ anything you like. That doesn't make it valid. You have to file to ® and that's more enforceable. I say more because USPTO just accepts your filing and its up to you to enforce it with lawyers and courts.

Maybe NewTek licensed to VMware. Maybe they didn't. In any case, NewTek has to get involved to prevent us all being confused...

Waiting for Oracle 3DSMax now. :)
Yeah my first thought was VMware bought LightWave??
