yeah
that was what bit uzi nissan of nissan computer (nissan.com, nissan.net). nissan (the car company) tried to go after him to get the domain, but it wasnt until he started putting automobile advertising on his web pages that they had a case to sink their teeth into.

the end result? he got to retain the use of his name for business purposes, but the domain names couldnt be used for any commercial purpose, so they just sit there.
