What this record means
The record shows that the mark “XBOX TECHNOLOGIES” is dead, having been abandoned by the applicant after the application was published for opposition. The owner listed is XBOX Technologies, Inc., a corporation organized in Minnesota. The mark covered services in class 042, specifically computer software development for others and technical support services such as troubleshooting computer hardware and software problems via telephone, e‑mail, in person, television, print and wireless means. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the area of software development and technical support services. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the wording “XBOX TECHNOLOGIES” in other contexts. The prosecution history shows the mark was approved for publication, published for opposition, registered on the Principal Register, and then cancelled and abandoned. No enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations beyond the abandonment are visible in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status suggests a lower risk, but the specific services listed still represent a focused area of concern.
