Good point, especially if someone else legally owns the name, why not flood 
the market with schematics so all old stuff cab be repaired and business 
worsen?! >:)

>>Hi there ,
>>we often wondered about copyrights & that sort of things ..
>> here is the message from Dave , that makes it clear on that Guitar
>>centre trouble ;
>>
>>Hi Patrice.
>>
>>You have probably seen the SD5K kit from Guitar Centre in the USA?
>>Here's the link: http://www.simmonsdrums.net/sd5k/
>>Well, this was as much a shock to me as it is for everyone else
>>interested in electronic drums. I have not sold or authorised the
>>use of the Simmons name or logo on anything, let alone that cheap
>>Medeli kit from China. Guitar centre have stolen the name to give
>>the kit an instant visibility in the market place.
>>
>>This has really upset me, and I have instructed lawyers to take
>>legal action against Guitar Centre. Please can you pass it around
>>the Simmons forums and various websites that this kit is nothing to
>>do with me. I would hate to think of Simmons fans looking at the
>>kit, or even buying it on the basis that it might be something
>>different or special. It is a bog standard Chinese kit that is being
>>manufactured and badged under all sorts of names.
>>
>>Best regards,

>>         We all know the truth now !?
>>              thanks for passing the News !
