To be even more specific, there are doubtless lots of Spectra
out there, including ones from IEEE and Chevrolet.  Trademarks
only apply within a particular business.  (Lawyers argue over
where one business stops and the next begins.)  While HP is
probably in the clear re: copier paper and small cars, I think
Foxboro controls or some such firm sells a Spectrum process
control system, and we do compete in that business.
