What this record means
The record shows that “MACBOOK AIR” is a live, registered mark owned by Apple Inc., a corporation organized in California. It is registered on the Principal Register under class 009, covering computers, notebook computers, computer hardware, computer operating system software, and computer peripherals, with first use and use in commerce dated January 15, 2008. A similar name used for goods or services in those areas would raise the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give Apple control over every use of the wording, only over the specified goods. There is no prosecution history indicating a descriptiveness refusal or Supplemental Register status, so the mark has not been moved to that register. The latest maintenance event is the renewal noted on May 22, 2018; no further dates are supplied. The supplied history shows no visible enforcement activity. For someone considering a similar name, the presence of this active registration in the same class suggests a meaningful risk of conflict.
