Dell should pay for the ideas it uses. It should pay for the idea what it is worth!

Dell is making a good faith effort to find out what people really want, and this is to e applauded. No need to complicate matters by asking for money.

I realized my favorite idea of automatically reinstalling DOS when a computer boot requires use of the letter 'e' in the description. It uses a number of other letters, too, but I'm not greedy. Therefore I have trademarked the letter 'e' and now politely remind Dell to pay a small royalty of .0001 cents for each occurrence of my letter 'e' wherever it is used. Such as in documentation, and that logo of theirs. No fair turning it sideways -- don't start thinking I can't identify a derivative of my work. Everyone else needs to remember to cut me a check when they use 'e', too. Like in "e-mail".. And don't get the idea that any earlier use of 'e' qualifies as prior art. I've been using 'e' since dirt was new, and I'm the first person who got the idea to trademark it, anyway. That's my idea, so everyone start paying up.

I'd settle for a "I voted on IdeaStorm" Sticker, or "I posted an Idea on IdeaStorm" sticker, but I'm not in it for the Money, just the fame.
