What this record means
The record shows that the mark “XBOX” is dead and was abandoned after an inter‑parts decision by the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board. The owner listed is XBOX Technologies, Inc., a corporation organized in Minnesota, and the mark was filed on February 28, 2000 on an intent‑to‑use basis. The only goods listed are printed books and reference manuals relating to computers and computer programs, class 016. Because the mark is no longer active, it does not give the owner control over every use of the word “XBOX.” The closest area of concern would be any use of the name on printed materials that teach or reference computer software. No enforcement activity—such as oppositions, extensions, or cancellations—is recorded in the supplied history. The last meaningful event was the abandonment on August 22, 2001. For someone considering a similar name, the risk is limited to printed computer‑related guides, but the mark’s dead status means the owner’s claim is no longer enforceable.
