Google is in the legal war with ISYS Technologies over the derivatives of the Chrome word. The Mountain View plans to call its forthcoming laptop Chromebooks while ISYS claims the name infringes on its trademarks.
ISYS asked a Utah district court for an injunction to stop Google and its partners from launching the laptops later this month. The company owns Xi3 Corporation, a subsidiary which last month introduced the ChromiumPC, a desktop computer that runs the Chrome OS.
Last year ISYS tried to market the device name but Google objected on allegations that the name is to close to the Chromium OS.
In the filing it is said that Google originally wanted to call the Chromebooks 'Speedbooks,' but changed the name after discovering the Speedbook moniker was already in use.
While in the process of preparing to launch the Chromebook, Google was also filing requests for extensions of time in the fight against the ChromiumPC trademark, something ISYS calls "unnecessary."
