2. what was Steve Jobs thinking?

if he didn't have the rights to the name why use it, or maybe he felt he could force Cisco's hand.

3. You don't tug on Superman's cape

You don't spit into the wind
You don't pull the mask off the old Lone Ranger
And you don't diss the Cisco Kid

Doo doo doo-doo doo doo doo-doo doo...

(even if his nickname is "Cissy")
