"Force RS supported in F12002 for PS2" Get this pop up when entereing the ACT-LABS site. And a picture of a BMW Williams with the AL logo on the front wings where the (IIRC) Fed-Ex logo should be. Companies pay *a lot* of money for that real estate... My neighbour works in the marketing arm of BMW UK and has many dealings with the F1 side of things. I might ask her out of curiosity what their legal stance might be. Without naming names, of course. I'm not a grass and I like my GPL Shifter... Mark Reading, UK

And as I was at work I was not in a position to lap endlessly around Vegas trying to get a setup that I can actually drive... (another extremely productive way of spending time) I know that F1 sponsorship is big bucks, and a company producing an ad where it decides to superimpose it's own logo over that of a paid-up sponsor seems iffy to me. Not truly sim related, I'spose, but not a million miles away either. And now I actually -do- have something better to do - house repairs. CYA Mark Reading, UK
Good point, Mark. And, I think your suspicions are correct, they can't do that. It was probably some "eager-beaver" in the back room at AL who did it. And, upper management has either not caught it, or haven't seen it yet. TP "Mark Davison" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:ai41ih$4ch$[email hidden]...
